Write Up:
It was yet another beautiful Spring-like afternoon for hiking the banks of the Chattahoochee River!  Parking is usually an issue on days like this, what with old-man winter giving us a break and all.  However, everyone was able to safely park and join us for another great hike at East Palisades.

We started our hike a little behind schedule, but we stuck to our time-line and arrived back at the parking lot within 1 minute of our scheduled end time.  A great time was had by all.  The pace was swift, stopping briefly at trail markers to re-group.

As with most AOC hikes ... new friendships were made, existing bonds were strengthed, and everyone involved has a great time!

P.S. I took a total of 71 photos of our hike.  Some of them may look like duplicates, but they are not.  My camera does a nice job at taking multiple shots.  It is a great way of (almost) guaranteeing a great shot of group photos.  You know, when people are blinking, yawning, etc.  Please feel free to logon and tag yourselves (and others) at http://facebook.com/jmitchtx.  And, if you are so inclined, friend me.  Also, the hi-rez versions of these shots are available upon request.  

Thanks again, and have a great week!
