This week we will hike along the Riverfront Trail. The hike will follow the hard surface walkway along the scenic Colorado river, with sightings of ravens, geese and ducks likely.  You will see the sunlight glinting off bales of recycled cans and colored bottles. Y'all recycle, right? We will go under a large bridge (guess which one?) where you will see interesting artwork, including a man who has very large teeth but cannot bite. You will visit a community that you may not even know exists, that includes a fine park area that could potentially accommodate an undercover seated party of 60. The hike will be about 2 hours, and 4 miles out and back. There are 4 benches along the way for those who tire during their walk. If you wish, you could just sit and enjoy the river and wait for the others to return to pick you up. Â
 Now that it is warmer, we will go back to the old time of 0845 to meet for the carpool. It will be bright and sunny with temps in the 40's.  To reach the Redlands Boat Launch carpool meetup location, from 24 Road, cross 6&50 South on to Redlands Parkway. Turn at the Redlands Boat Launch and park in the large parking lot. Lunch or coffee afterward, if you wish.Â
