This morning, 3 energetic TOWNies joined me for a great hike on the Lady Bird Lake Trail. Jacque, Janice, Erin and I not only hiked the planned 4 mile loop from the I-35 bridge to Longhorn Dam and back, but also the 3.22 mile loop from I-35 to Congress and back. We hiked the 7.22 miles in about two and a half hours! Yea!
Most of us had not hiked this section in a while and it was our first time to see the “Forever Bicycles” sculpture comprised of 1200 bicycles. It was a little WARM this morning, but the shady parts of the trail gave us a break from the sun and there was a nice breeze.
To meet the food requirement of an official TOWN outing, we stopped under a shady tree and shared some mixed nuts and grapes. Erin is new to TOWN and this was her first outing. We enjoyed meeting Erin and hope she will join us on another outing soon. It was nice being out on the trail today with such great company!
Thanks,
