A 2nd Covid-19 Christmas. . .Merry, Merry Christmas!

December 25, 2021 by dpankiewicz

The year is 2021. This Christmas the whole world continues its celebration with Covid-19 protocols in place. To think back in December 2019 we were watching the Covid-hospitals being built in Wuhan. At the end of 2021 we are all still living in this pandemic. We still need to rejoice in the ability of mankind to adapt, innovate and unite this Christmas. We need to keep the hope alive that we will return to a better, simpler world post-Covid. We […]

#rileysriverrats Cupid’s Undie Pump 2022 #endnf

November 29, 2021 by dpankiewicz

Attention all River Rats or Undie Runners. Pittsburgh Cupid is planning to run on 2/19/22. Based on the omnicron variant, I’m still thinking we should plan our own small event just in case the 2022 run will go virtual. I was thinking about throwing a January Cupid’s Undie Pump at a local gym (think BodyTech, RxFit Ford City or Diamond), followed by a home party full of social distancing, vax, masks and bring your own dessert at either Les & […]

It was so big, it made the NY Times.

You need to open this post email and read/watch it from the blog. If you didn’t hear about this yet, it made the New York Times. Turn up the sound on the video and note that these are schools from two counties just outside of Pittsburgh. If anybody wonders why I agreed to coach middle school girls soccer 40 minutes from my house, it’s because it was about more than soccer. It was about empowering these young women to take […]

October 29, 2021 by dpankiewicz

It may have been one year late but the wait was completely worth it. Listening to all of the songs from GreenDay specifically American Idiot left me with a giant moment of reflection. I never saw mySelf a a liberal leaning leftist, but after Sept. 11 happened and we went on this polarizing stream of law, order, security and warfare I began to question. The motivation behind the industrial machine of war. Last nights concert brought back those memories of […]

Starting October 2021: Me Too, Soccer, River Season, Locks and Dams.

October 2, 2021 by dpankiewicz

It’s October the boards are out at Allegheny River Lock and Dam No. 9, No. 8, No. 7 and No. 6–the pool level is dropping in Pool 9 at a rate where the dock will be coming out very soon, if not in the next few days. Phoebe has confirmed that we will still have enough boat launch to do this dock thing and boat launch thing later this week. Kittanning levels have dropped and so have the ones here […]

Just the numbers please.

apple.news/ALekB5JNuSQqe3YXug7X25g Stay home. Practice social distancing. Wear a mask if you go out. Think before going out and keep your contact tracing diary. And if you are leaving your house to just call the sheriff on a little girl, you really need to be checked in for observation. . . It makes you wonder what type of people are living in Canal Winchester? We are still living in this COVID world and need to keep our guard up. 20,000 Americans […]

Virtual Travel with Tangerine Travels

April 25, 2020 by dpankiewicz

I needed a paddleboard fix and sun today. Let’s take a trip with our friends from Tangerine Travels to paddleboard on some amazing water in Quintana Roo a bit south of Playa del Carmen. Today’s temperatures there were over 90, meanwhile in Pittsburgh it’s rain and gray and 55. By the way— Laska is adorable. So we’ve done the Zoom game nights, happy hour, coffee, church, Easter dinner and now Monopoly. Now we are planning for a birthday party. For […]
