PICKET POST FOLLOWED BY STEAKS AT # 166

You are in for a treat this evening
Joe is telling the story
along
with his photographs of the
Picket Post Hike
and
get-together at our place on the desert



The task for the day
Get to the top


The crew
Sumitors and flatlanders


Some may have heard of the fire that threatened the Arboratum this past summer
We hiked through the remnants of it on the way up the mountain


Snow on the way up
We made this six foot snowman


At the top
Reading mail and munching down


 
Our leader Jerry


Jim making lunch


Curt stealing the mailbox


Tom saying "I am the Man"


Dennis playing Mr Cool

Jerry reading the riot Act


Moe sayin "Peace of cake"


Bonnie recording the event


Katie saying "Last one down is a loser"


Stretched out on the way down


Down the Gulch


And more stretchin


Made it to the bottom


A couple of hours later


This is the only picture of the food for the night
There was a lot more
Lots of appetizers, potatoes, beans and pie
with ice cream



Chowing down


Gwen saying "How come I wasn't invited to the party?"


Tried to get a picture of everyone


But I know I missed some











Dennis must be telling one of his "jokes"





Dan with some of his girls















A good time had by all

There were no complaints in the Complaint Box
