Twenty-three members came out for the annual fall social at Wanisan Stopover. It’s the end of October and we are still enjoying fine fall weather.
The morning started with a hike. But first, we dropped off our chairs and bowls at the stopover. Scott stayed behind to start and look after the fire.
The rest of us followed John on a two-hour hike, going as far as the second boardwalk. On the return, some of the group deviated to the alternate “blue” trail for a little extended hiking. It’s an exceptional bit of trail that takes you to unseen views of Wanisan Lake.
By the time we got back, Anita had already arrived with two large pots of hot, steaming chili, sitting on a garden wagon.
There was also a Tupperware cake saver full of cornbread muffins, several desserts, and Darlene’s famous homemade pickles.
We spent the rest of our time around the fire—eating, visiting, and enjoying roasted marshmallows.
