Sudbury River and Fairhaven Bay - January 29 ,2020

HIKE REPORT

Wednesday, 29 January 2020, Winter hike around Sudbury River and Fairhaven Bay
Hike Leader:  Jack Mroczkowski
~4 miles, 10:00 am start from Sudbury Road, Concord, MA
Hikers (23):  Jack, Ann Northup, Bob Cheney, Butch Pemstein, Cindy Chin, David Fay, David Wean, Doug Chin, Everett Briggs, Janet Miller, Larry Kornetsky, Lorraine Reihle, Marie Keutmann, Mike Hanauer, Rick Carlson, Robyn Maislin, Rochelle Holman, Ron Beland, Roy Westerberg, Sally Chapman, Susan Sabin, and first-timers Bob Pearlman and Pat Stabler.

It felt like an early spring day, with temperatures in the high 30s and clear skies.

We paused a few times in our meandering to take in some peaceful views of the river and bay.  Around the mid-point of our hike, we came across Everett who was travelling in the opposite direction - he quickly reversed direction to join us.

Some good exercise was provided by a small hill where, at the top, we marveled at how some of the .1 percenters live with such luxuries as a private, secluded outdoor ice skating rink with sound and light systems.

Most hikers went to Verrill Farm to have lunch in the greenhouse.
