Mon, Oct 5 2026 - Monday Morning at Charleston Park - with an optional picnic lunch (View Original Event Details)
| ![]() |
The day's weather changed from gloomy and overcast to bright and sunny toward the end of our hike, so we were able to enjoy a bright picnic lunch together before we headed home.
The trails were completely free of bikers as they should be after a rainy day. The trails were wet, but we were careful, so no one slipped or fell. That always makes for a successful hike!
Our full group of 12 dropped to 9 the evening before the hike, with Karsten being the only representative of the other gender. He didn't seem to mind.
All of the ladies stayed for a picnic lunch by the water, which was most enjoyable with shared culinary contributions and friendly conversation.
Congratulations to Barbara for her milestone achievement! ~ Joyce
