If you are doing any of the AVA specialty books - these trails hit a lot of the special catagories!
including Firehouses, Museums, Historic Churches, Veterans Memorials and more....

Information at http://www.ava.org/gen3/data/event_details.asp?eventid=83761. Come early and beat the heat. There is a fair amount of shade available. Oh, and don't forget the Ice Cream!!!

We don't have any group walks on the schedule currently but if anyone is interested I am open to suggestions.... Anyone? Where would you like to walk?
We've had some warm weather finally but Sept and Oct are always good months for walking so let's have some discussion and maybe we can get together for another walk.

Several of us did the Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti walks recently. Both are interesting and great walks. Add in beautiful weather and great company to top off the fun. I was able to complete my Historic Churches special program, pick up several stamps for others I'm working on and send in another event book. Thanks to the Washtenaw Wanderers for these walks.
