October 2

I cannot believe it is October 2016 already.
It is a gloomy day, but we are supposed to host a church hike after church today to the big tree and have a cookout.  The weather man says a sower may be possible, but it is a slight chance.

Yesterday Beth took to  the woods with her chipper.  Tom and Chuck hauled limbs to her as she fed them to the chipper.  that thing scares me to death, but she is careful, thank God.

Tom and chuck positioned a bench part way down Luella trail, so she can rest along the way.  she does not have a beautiful spot to hike in Dallas, as I do, so her walking skills are less than mine.  However, I am so happy to be able to hike along the trails and am sorry that Tom cannot, though he manages well on his ATV.  As long as we are both able and happy, life is good.
I will write tomorrow on the success or failure of our hike.  Pastor Chris is trying to keep the congregation involved in various activities and he has been pushing this  hike.  Last month we had a community cook out and had about 40 people out enjoying good food on a lovely evening.
