Our First Outing

Hello everyone! Today marks the Corning Hiking Club's "maiden voyage." Ron hung out at the McDonald's, hoping to catch some enthusiastic hikers this morning, but alas, maybe the chilly temps kept them warm in bed. So Ron came back, grabbed me, his wife Christine, and our 11 mo. old son Sam, and the hike commenced anyhow!

The three of us drove up to Spencer Crest Nature Center, where we met a very kind older gentleman named Andy and his dog Belle. Andy showed us the trails for a good 50% of the way (he hikes them daily with Belle!) and then we parted and the three of us took in the sites on our own. We are somewhat familiar with these trails, as Ron has brought our dog Beegsley up to splash around in the lake and run amok, getting much needed energy out of his system!

Below are some photos from this morning's journey. We hope that more people will show some interest. We've got an email account going as well: corninghikingclub@hotmail.com.

COME ONE COME ALL!!! Invite your friends. The walk this morning was very refreshing and really nice. It's just about peak foliage here in Corning. Beautiful!!!
