Thanks for the tip about the dog park. I'm going to research if there are any hiking spots within a reasonable distance because his interest is mostly in wildlife rather than making doggy friends.
I dont know of any really close.... if you drive a bit though Fairmount Park and the Wissahickon are really beautiful and expansive. You can also daytrip it up to Delaware Water Gap

Tacony Crreek Park and Pennypack are closer in the NE I have never been to them though I should make that one of my goals this summer.

I love Astoria. I was on 40th off QB... I really miss the food and pubs in queens sometimes but not the crowdedness or the rent or the parking.
