Warm winter day, sunny and spring like. Got lucky with the weather. Five of us meet to enjoy some of the day together. We all kept up the pace, took one main trail over creeks, through forest and meadows, with just a little bit of patches of ice here and there. Afterwards, headed in to the historic town of High Bridge for a healthy choice of lunch items at the local cafe. Good way to get out and take a break from the cabin fever. Thanks guys and hopefully we shall meet again at another GO event. Anyone up for hosting something? Great time to get out before it gets too hot and humid.
