An Update on the Three Rivers Postcard Club

Embed from Getty Images When I first started blogging, I set up a google calendar to keep track of and share Pittsburgh events. In 2008 we wrote a post about the Three Rivers Postcard Club and I added a recurring event for their monthly meetings to the calendar.

Where Are You Celebrating After the St. Patrick's Day Parade?
