Ten wonderful men gathered on time at DAR State Forest in the foothills of the Berkshire mountains for a 2 1/2 hour shuffle through crisp fallend leaves, culminating at the fire tower where we enjoyed lunch  before climbing to the top for awesome view.  The brisk and windy conditions on top were forgiven when we saw that the sun was indeed shining over the valley.

Among the ten were two virgins to GO, including the host OmOmOm aka Jim.  He graciously shared his sauna situated 100 yards into the woods behind his home. Hot sweaty naked bodies filled the sauna to capacity, Yelps and squeals filled the night air as one by one we plunged into the spring fed pond ajacent to the sauna.

We then made our way to the house and enjoyed a  sumptious feast including chicken tetrazinni, turkey loaf, Italian sausages, Ethiopian lentils and vegetables, green tomato bread and Putney Vineyard apple wine. Gathering around a wood stove encouraged warm sharing including the usual gay banter and deep heartful ideas.

This event should be repeated!
