September 8, 2012 Poet's Walk

     It was hot and humid [surprise!!] but for most of the walk it was overcast so it wasn't too bad.  There were 15  members and we were pleased to see Florence's daughter, Joanne, and her dog Maggie.  She told us Florence is doing somewhat better but the road to recovery is slow.  We're hoping she'll be able to join us for the picnic.  We also met Linda, a potential member, her daughter [Cameron, I think] and friend, Karen.  They had time constraints so they started walking before us.  We hope they'll decide to join us on future walks.  
     Unfortunately, one of our members, Susan, had a bad fall.  It took a bit of time for her to recover but it appeared and we hope that there were no significant injuries.  I'm sure she was quite sore for a couple of days and hope she's doing better now.
    There were 9 of us at the Everready Diner in Rhinebeck.  We enjoyed a good breakfast and company while watching the dire weather predictions on the Weather Channel.  I don't know what happened in Dutchess Co. but here in Circleville there was one really big downpour with mega wind and that was it.
