Hi All, We had a nice group of TOWNIES, Janice, Debbie, Leigh, Jody and Marsha, who glistened through 4.75 miles of hiking. We started at a different location and agreed that it is more beautiful than the usual starting point. This may become a regular starting point now, just down the road from the usual launching point! The humidity made it a challenge as it had rained the night before and gifted us with a half-inch of rain. The rain over the past week provided just the push for the rain lilies to appear. It was almost like walking through a blanket of white and pink flowers that cheerfully glistened with the morning moisture. We tried to glisten but we actually just sweated as the heat and humidity reminded us that summer is fast approaching. As this was a smaller group, we all had a chance to chat and we were all mesmerized by Leigh’s tale of being stalked in the past. It was a harrowing adventure that left us thinking about Leigh “though she be but little she is fierce”. We also caught up on home repair, families and learning that shampoo makes a wonderful sink cleaner. We had few birds that serenaded and little wind that cooled us. Yet, it was a nice hike with beautiful scenery, complimented by the flowers that proudly shown like diamonds in the morning light.
Until nest time… Happy Trails, Marsha
