Sixteen came out for the hike September 11, 2016. The weather cleared, the sun shone and a good time was had by all. 5.7 miles.

This was my first time as a leader so I discovered new responsibilities I hadn’t thought of before. Clearing parts of the trail that have branches, berry bushes that grab you and the big one, you’re supposed to know where you’re going! I did for the most part, but did have to check the map in a few places.

We found a nice spot and had lunch. Lori Waterman just completed her 5th hike so is eligible for membership. Being a smart woman, she baked cookies for everyone and is using these to schmooze them with food for the morals committee! Being associated with me isn’t going to help her! We stopped at the “Boro” after for a cold beverage. As luck would have it, they had free wings, sausage and other things to start the football season. Gotta love that. Getting back home it was either mow the lawn or take the Harley out… I wish all decisions in life were no-brainers like that.
Squeeze out every drop of summer while you can, you know what’s next…
