EDITOR’S CORNER
I had an opportunity to visit Big Basin
Redwoods State Park two weeks ago.
This was a hiking destination. We
hiked from Waddell Beach to the
Park Headquarters Visitor Center and
back. We encountered three waterfalls on the way to the Center
It is not necessary to do any hiking to
enjoy the park. You can drive to the
Visitor Center and two of the tallest
trees in the forest are within yards of
the center. Remember, these trees
are between 200 and 300 feet tall
and are between 1000 and 2000
years old. This particular stand of
trees are known as coast redwoods.

Country ‘N Western BBQ
You were greeted with the aroma of grilled meats as you entered the restaurant. The day
began with friends greeting
friends, selecting seating, and
enjoying beverages and conversation.
Although attendance was down
somewhat, those that did attend
seemed to enjoy themselves
very much. I heard someone
say that some members did not attend because of difficulty in navigating the
buffet line. Please don’t let that stop you. Other members will provide assistance to those needing it.
The menu was as advertised. And, as usual the food was delicious. My personal favorites were the tri-tip and Italian sausage. Michael’s does an excellent job for these luncheons.
Many thanks to the Programs group for arranging this luncheon. In addition,
Norm did a good job of M C’ing the day’s activities. Door Prize winners
were; Victor Zuroff, Annamarie Boddy and David Ray. Vern briefed us on
upcoming travel and pictures were taken by Bill Hammerlund
After lunch, several members participated in the line dancing instructions
from The Dancing DJ, Rich Campbell.
I enjoyed talking with my table mates, Margaret Schmidt and the Robinsons.
To borrow a phrase from Ken Koga, “The Country and Western BBQ luncheon was a success.”
Don’t forget the October luncheon. See flyer.

These trees, because of their size and
antiquity, were among the natural
wonders of the world and should be
saved for posterity.”
