Yesterday, Aug 29th 2008, 10 hikers braved the warm weather to hike out from Inspiration Point and along Nimitz Way Trail. Hikers were Barbara C., Trang I., Fran Mc., Shirley A., Marty R., Cindy W., Jane B., Emmie L, and Sharon K.
The skies were sunny and the intermittent shade welcome as we hiked along the trail. We hiked for over 4 miles (off the map so I couldn’t calculate exactly how far we went). We saw wise cows under a tree resting in the shade of a large oak tree, a couple of bunnies scurrying off into the underbrush, and a few flowers including asters, thistles, and fennel. We had views of Brionne Reservoir below to our right along with Mt. Diablo and Mt. Tam, and the Golden Gate Bridge provided a backdrop for our group photo. We hiked for a total of 2 hours. .
Our condolences go out to member Cindy Watkins whose grandmother passed away a little over a week ago. Cindy has been in Danville caring for her over the past two years and will be leaving us at the end of Sept to return home in Bosie.
Happy Trails, Sharon Kovar
