Hike #5932 – Onondaga Lake Park – 6/4/2011
We had 21 people show up for a 3-event outing. Two people were new. We broke up into groups of hikers, bikers, and kayakers. All were out for about two hours and returned for a cookout. The clouds turned grey and it started sprinkling lightly. Since the charcoal was old, we had trouble starting it. Thank goodness for Dick Blanchard’s boat flair, which finally got the charcoal burning so we could cook our hot dogs, hamburgers, and sausage.
After lunch, many folks left because of the cool, drizzly weather. Nine of us stayed to hike the northern part of the park on a five-mile round trip trail.
By the time we returned to the picnic area, the skies were blue and the sun was shining.
