Our big adventurous group took advantage of the warm springlike weather and had a very memorable hike.  I was proud of our "can-do esprit de corps" as we explored several "off-the-beaten-path" scenic loops and spurs that connect various remote parts of Mason Mill, Medlock and Ira Melton Parks.  The outing required several creek crossings via stepping stones - also we were among the first hikers ever to try out several new boardwalks and trails that are being built by the PATH Foundation.  It was fun having Tracey and Rebecca with us on their very first AOC event - also a delight to have five happy canine companions with us! Submitted by Charlie, Saturday at 6:00 PM
