Hike, potluck, future event planning

Hike through the woods, share a meal, and enjoy good company

Details

Let's get together at my house in Coventry, CT for a hike, potluck, and continued brainstorming on future GO outings for the upcoming seasons.

We will meet at the house and go on an easy nature hike through the 43 acres of woods in the back of the house.  Walking or hiking boots are fine.  There is a brook that can be crossed over dry rocks or a tree bridge, along with two small ridges that can be climbed for those looking for more exertion.  Hopefully, we'll have people who can identify the spring trees, plants, and mushrooms coming up.

Bring some food to share. The propane grill will be operational for those who want.  I'll have sodas and other drinks, but if you want something specific, bring some to share with all.

After the hike, we'll continue brainstorming more group activities.  There should also be time for a soak in the hot tub or a stretch in the sauna for those interested.  Bring a towel, but bathing suits are not necessary.  If the weather is nice, we'll have a fire in the fire pit for the evening.

For those who can, try to carpool to make parking easier.  I'll send more specific information on directions after you've signed up.

Of course Gracie can come on the hike, as long as no one has an anaphylactic allergy to dogs, ha! And as for hanging in the house, that would be fine too as long as I don't find a present from Gracie in a corner somewhere a week later, LOL.
