Welcome to the group Mike!

Great catch! Was that in your back yard?

Mike, Thanks for the post on medical conditions. Since I'm the person that the discussion is about, I was shocked to read Yager's post. I thought I might not be able to hike with the group if other's felt this way as there may be a time that I would need help.Your message came indirectly to me, to let me know that people would jump in to help.That meant a lot to me for I really enjoyed the hike on Sun.and was planning on coming back. Now I know that most in the group are very caring people.

Thanks for the "rescue" today!
