Saturday, March 21

Just back from Florida where I had a fabulous, activity filled vacation visiting Anka and Fred. We spent a super day visiting Jean and Patrick at their new home in Punta Gorda! Everything, including the weather was marvelous!!! They both say a big HELLO to everyone!

Weather is great for tomorrow! Whether you're walking or running, it will be a great morning! Looking forward to seeing ya there ... 9:00am at Bushtukah's, followed by Donna's around 10:15.

For those of you that know her, Chris's Mom is joining us! (That's her in the picture, opening a nice bottle of wine!).

Cheers!

Saturday, March 14

Jennifer is away visiting Anka and Jean in Florida (lucky dogs!), but hopefully lots of folks will show up for our Saturday WRAP (Walk, Run, and Pole) session. (I think I'll have to change it to WRAPS to include snowshoe).

We'll meet as usual at Bushtakka, with breakfast at Donna's around 10:10. I hope to see you there!

Friday Ski day, March 13

Well, it looks like it is not in the cards for us to ski on Friday. It might be OK, but it might not.
So- let's try snowshoeing ... which also might be hiking on solid ice!

Meet at P. 6 ... McKenzie King Estates, at 10:00. There is a lovely snow-shoe specific trail from there.

It may have warmed up at bit by 10:00 .. let's hope so!

Afterwards we could go into Old Chelsea and have a coffee, seeing as there is no cabin in the vacinity of where we wil be snow-shoeing.

Please let me know if you are coming - Thanks!

Directions to P. 6 - McKenzie King.

From the raised intersection in Old Chelsea, turn LEFT.
Follow this road for about 3 km, crossing over the parkway.
When almost at P 7 (it should seem familiar)
look for SWAMP ROAD on your left and turn Left onto Swamp road.
After 1 km, at the STOP sign, turn Right.
After about 3oo metres, see a white fence on the left and turn in there.
You will see the parking lot.

Saturday, March 7

OK everyone ... looks like this Saturday is going to be absolutely beautiful!!!!!! It's also the night that we turn the clocks ahead an hour!

What better day than this to get out, exercise with friends and enjoy the day!!!

I will not be out for the next 2 weeks, but will return on the 21st. That is no reason to miss a day, especially as the weather has turned the corner and definitely improved. Maybe I'll get Chris to send out an e-mail next week. I expect that there might not be any snowshoeing, just walking for sure and possibly a few running.

So, meet at Bushtukah for 9:00am, set out on your various routes and then back to Donna's for breakfast by 10:15.

Have a great outing on Saturday, the weather certainly looks beautiful!!!!!
See you on the 21st!!!
