You know the moment where you check the weather app and it says there is going to be a full sun day in Pittsburgh? Heck, I’ll even take partial sun.
Well, I’m manifesting a lot of those with this list. And as Pittsburghers we don’t have time to waste figuring out how to spend the nice days. We need a hit list. And I’m sharing 20 things on mine for 2023.
My 2023 Summer Hit List
- Mini golfing and ice cream sandwiches at Forsythe Miniature Golf
- Outdoor movie – see my list of places to go from 2022
