GZ2. MLO day and Stepping Stones Falls

On May 18, 2021May 19, 2021 By boogkb

Wednesday a walk to the Falls which are really cascades. Many paths, took a hard one and then a nice easier one. Not one damn wildlife spotted. Not even a chipmunk! After dinner, however, saw a duck and a heron/egret on a nearby pond (with binoculars).

Got home to broken front door lock. Oh well.

GZ2. Le Bec and walk Sachuest Nature Reserve

On May 12, 2021May 16, 2021 By boogkb

Le Bec Sucre out of all but baguettes. We purchased one and it was pretty good. Then to Custom House Coffee for yogurt parfaits, pastry and good coffee.

Off on our first walk

Nice ride out to the southern beaches. Beautiful loop walk. Visitor’s Center was closed. Quite a few other walkers.

GZ2. BBQ with M&G

On May 10, 2021May 10, 2021 By boogkb

Intended to to a comparison of Beyond and Impossible products. Could only get the Beyond ones. Sausage a loser, burger edible especially with fixins. Impossible sold out.

Beans especially good as was G’s cole slaw

GZ2. Mac first hot tub and Marcia dinner

On May 7, 2021May 8, 2021 By boogkb

Not officially open until the 15th but…. The small waving dot is Jeff on his inaugural tub soak

Dinner at Marcia’s with Bruce, M&G

GZ2. Fired by the club!

On May 6, 2021May 6, 2021 By boogkb

Sent this along with a check. Called me to tell us; I listened and said thanks.

I strongly suspect it was caused by my complaining about some nickel and dime locker room key charges. As QB says, not our kind of people

GZ2. Club, fireworks, curtains
