As our hiking season draws to a close, and many are returning to their homes, I want to thank everyone for their cooperation and and participation in this years hikes.

Many of you are aware that Loretta and I had to return to Illinois in early February. Our son-in-law was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.

Our son-in-law passed away on March 5th, 2019.  We also received news that our granddaughter in Nebraska had also passed away. Both funerals were held on the same day, states apart.

I want to thank, Robin and Jerry for taking charge of the group. They have done a fantastic job! I also want to thank all the folks who have stepped up this year to lead hikes and drive each Wednesday.

Hikes will be announced on a week to week basis, through this site and through the Facebook page as well.

Loretta and I will be returning to Tucson, on Sunday, the 31st.  Looking forward to seeing some of you before we all depart for the summer!

As we all depart, please have a safe trip, a good summer and as always

HAPPY TRAILS
