6879 – Strawberry Moon at Valley View – June 16, 2019

The Tramps were out, but the Strawberry Moon was not to be found. The full moon in June is named such because this was the time to pick wild strawberries.
On this rainy evening we hiked under umbrellas or raincoats up the switchbacks at Valley View Golf Course. As we descended back to the pavilion we were greeted with a lovely clear sunset but still no Strawberry Moon. It was too cloudy!
At the pavilion, Sharon had a fire going and we enjoyed strawberry lemonade, fresh strawberries and some cookies before heading back down to our cars.
