The Poconos trip was great, lots of beautiful, interesting and exciting things to do and see… but none come close to the excitement caused when Grace Zerbe and Barrie Wright announced Friday evening that they had married that morning.
Grace Zerbe, who has been a regular with us for over a year, has gotten to be known as always game for learning a new sport and sticks with it until she has it mastered.
We first met Barrie at the recent planning meeting at Rock City Park. Barrie is a native of Australia living in the south coast city of Adelaide, an outdoors man, academic, and a lot else that I would probably get all mixed up if I tried to relate it. We know he plays a rousing Hamlet – we heard a sampling of that at the talent show on Wednesday. In the Poconos he was interested in the plants and took what must have been hundreds of pictures of huge hemlocks, tiny forest flowers and most everything in between.
An end-of-stay meeting to reminisce the week’s events turned into a celebration at Grace and Barrie’s announcement. The group drove into town for wedding cake and ice cream – that’s the newlyweds cutting the cake in the picture above. Our best wishes for you, Grace and Barrie!
Watch This Spot!The club’s outing to CEEP camp in the Poconos was great fun. Eighteen members drove the 300+ miles for a week of hiking, sightseeing and all the fun we could think up to do. The pictures are coming in to put together a story so keep watching this spot for a link to it. Until then, check out one of the water falls at Dingman Falls in the photo above.
