Thanks, Helena!

This blog was the brainchild of our very own Helena King. She suggested it as an easy way to keep people informed of the outdoor activities I plan. At least that's how she sold it. I really think she just got annoyed with my emails filling up her inbox.

Seriously, it should help keep those of you who are interested in learning about future group activities. And, instead of receiving emails, you can choose to check in whenever you get that serious urge to move. If you're the forgetful type, you can always subscribe to the blog and continue receiving emails. I also thought about creating a Facebook group but, since a few of you are still Facebook-challenged, this seems the best way to go.

This won't just provide a forum to keep you in the loop with future events, but provide a journal of our past adventures. Feel free to post how you felt about activities after we've done them or give suggestions for future excursions. This isn't a clique - spread the word to anyone you think may be interested.

Enjoy your winter breaks - I'll see you soon on the next outing. Details to follow soon.....
