Our order for this morning's hike was for the fog to lift and the sun to shine - - and they did!  What a fantastic environment to celebrate two memorable achievements:  Sunae reached her 200th event today and Thomas W. reached his 100th! These two members have been hiking up a storm over the past months, and we've certainly enjoyed their company! Thomas even brought Lily along so that she could make his 100th more memorable.  Unfortunately, Sandra got a speeding ticket on her way to Yellow River (being on time is important!), but she made it, and caught up with us on the overlook deck.  (See her photo!)  Helena got a bit lost on the way to the hike but she, too, caught up with the group - - so all were present!  We had a wonderful hike, covering both sides of the park without getting lost!  We saved the river trail to the end, where we enjoyed a short pause for pictures on the sandy beach. This was an AOC event for the memory books. Thanks to all for making it so.
