Today we celebrated 40 years of walking on Wednesdays. 23 of us -- some original members, some recent recruits -- enjoyed companionship and lunch (box lunches from Sunrise Catering in Walnut Creek) at the shaded Oak Grove Picnic area in Briones Regional Park. Most took a short walk before the program and food, but the day was very hot (90-ish) and there was little temptation to go very far.
And then there was THE SURPRISE...Jeanne was inspired to do something really special. The luncheon committee would create something permanent to give everyone, something they could hold in their hand and look at when they wanted to – see their favorite hike or their friends hiking now or hiking years ago. A true testament to the 40 life changing years 1979 – 2019. And so we created a book which was given out before lunch (and mailed to some who have moved out of the area or were unable to attend).
As Phred always says...Happy Trails!!!
