Hamilton Beach, Thu 14 Jul 2022

It was another perfect day for 23 friends to gather on Hamilton Beach to work up an appetite for Julie's BBQ later that same morning. It was a real success in all respects -- we even found the famous and elusive Fletcher Ave. With that box ticked, we turned around and headed back. :) 

"No, we're going this way!"

Richard: "... no officer, just when he's drinking!"

The Yucca plants are having a good summer

Somehow, we acquired another leader...?

Hiking friends in the summer: Gairloch Gardens and Tannery Park, Thu 7 Jul 2022

Perfect weather and an attractive venue brought out 32 Pathfinders including 9 Turtles.

We really did stop to smell the roses. They were in their prime.

Others took a more artistic approach
