Crabs and Hills

We had a great training walk last Saturday. There were seven of us representing the San Diego and Atlanta 3Day Walks, and the Italy Walk. When we arrived at 6:45 a.m., there was a couple that already had claimed the second table in - they were cooking crabs that they had caught the night before, and they had other things on the grill too (more about them).

This was a climbing walk (is there any other kind of Hottie walk?): the Lyon Street Stairs, walked along the gorgeous Lands End Trail (with more stairs), and the now famous Lincoln Street Hill. Although it was very cold when we started, we arrived back at the Warming Hut to sunshine and sparkling bay waters. The couple with the crabs was still there - no offer of crabs but they looked at us congratulating each other for a good walk and it seemed that they remembered us from the early morning. It felt kind of like when I leave my cat in bed, go for a 12 mile walk, and come back to find her still in bed.

AUGUST 18/19 WALKS

Please join us!! On Saturday we will meet at 7:00 a.m. at the Warming Hut for a 12 mile walk. On Sunday we will be meeting in Ross at 7:30 a.m. for a 10-12 mile walk on Mt. Tamalpias. Really, really, really - thanks to Cheryl - this will actually happen. Stay tuned for directions.

I look forward to seeing more of you soon. Walk safely.
