Write Up:

Today was Jose's birthday. He joined us despite needing to leave right after the hike to attend Carol's back surgery this afternoon. We sang "Happy Birthday" as he arrived (at the very last minute), and Lisa S. presented him with a candled cupcake. We talked about his wife, Carol's, surgery and waved to her in a group picture at one of the caves. Trish, my usual co-lead, is on the Inca Trail trip, so Shirley got a short walkie-talkie training session and stepped right in as the sweep for the group. She did a fantastic job! Definitely trip-lead material. :-) We were happy to add Phyllis to the group today, and as the pictures show, she was readily accepted as one of the group. The temperatures dropped a bit for us today - - a most welcomed relief. And surprise of surprises - - Mike C. ordered a quesadilla instead of a NRT hamburger . . . his first pattern change in two years! Oh, what a day it was!  ~  Joyce
