SEPTEMBER 12, 2015 NORRIE POINT

       It was a perfect day for walking and picnicking...sun, blue skies, not too hot, a little breeze.  We had discussed the possibility of not having a picnic and then decided to go back to Norrie Point and try another picnic.  There were 14 of us and I think we all agreed that it was a good decision.  I know that, for me, it was a very enjoyable day.
       It's amazing how we manage to get such a good variety of tasty food with a just "bring what you want" direction.
       We walked up the hill on the paved road and then turned right and followed what was supposed to be the yellow trail but most of it had red markers.  I had a new map but it didn't seem to correspond with what we followed.  We hadn't been on the trail previously and it was a nice, new direction.
       The picnic followed with good food and good company. 
       Right now it's difficult to determine what a new year will bring; but right now I think it's safe to say the picnic is worthwhile and we'll do it again at Norrie Point next year.

We stopped first at the marina

There's a nice little picnic area near the marina

And the other side of the road.



Trail view...it was nice walking in this area.

And another trail view.


We did get to the monument.
The tide had begun to come in as we walked back to the environmental center.



What a nice group.

Thanks Deirdra
