Twenty two of us today! And the weather cooperated. It was cool and windy with an approaching front, but that is far better than hot. However it was hazy and the views not as great as they had been when Jeanne, Elaine, Phred and I scouted the area in mid-May. You will see some pictures from that earlier trip as well as the ones I took today. Anything with a very blue sky is from the earlier trip!
We convened at Rush Ranch, a Solano Land Trust property that is part of the San Francisco Bay National Esturine Research Area. The larger group split in two with the one group setting off for an approximately two mile loop along the marsh and back across the open grassland. The others opted for a stroll out to a rise overlooking the marsh and back, just under 1 mile. Reports from the first group of hikers was that the trail is very overgrown and they had to do a good deal of bush whacking.
It is a short drive back to downtown Suisun City and our lunch location at the Athenian Grill. We had one of the covered porches which nicely held our group. After lunch some of us walked about looking at the public art and some went down to the Suisun Wildlife Center before heading home.
