HIKE & PARTY REPORT
WED, 25 December 2019, Winter walk & potluck lunch
Walk Leader & lunch host: Susan Sabin
~5 miles, 10:00 am hike start from 40 Seaver Street, Wellesley, MA
Walkers (7+): Susan, Adena Schutzberg, Butch Pemstein, Janet Miller, Marie Keutmann (& Zoe), Mike Hanauer, and Richard Vignoni.
A small group of walkers showed up at Susan’s on Christmas morning, each of whom reported that traffic was non-existent. Two of our group of seven neglected to bring along their microspikes, not quite believing that the “wilds” of Wellesley would indeed be forested, wet, and wild. In spots, those two had to proceed on all fours. Not a one of the sensible group laughed, nor did anyone hitch a pony ride! However, the good news for those in the minority was that they got much more exercise than those of us who stayed upright.
It was a lovely walk. At about a half mile from walk's end, we shed our microspikes and proceeded down the middle of a major street (still no cars, AT ALL). Lunch was intimate and, in the spirit of the WWs, spirited. A wonderful time was had by all.
