Your spring must-do list

The snow is melting (slowly, but surely) and warmer weather is on its way. Kick off the season right with these three spring must-dos in Pittsburgh:

• Take a walk in the park: From Frick to Highland, Schenley and Mellon Square, Pittsburgh would be nothing without its beautiful public landscapes. Check out the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy events calendar for more info.

• Catch a game: Batter up! The Pirates home opener at PNC Park is on Monday, April 2 vs. the Twins – get your tickets here.

• Check out the Spring Flower Show at Phipps: Stop and smell the “Scents of Wonder.”
