Mother\’s Day Hike

For mothers day, Barb wanted to hike mission peak as a family. It was a great day to hike. Not too hot, not too cold. We were lucky enough to get to go with the Lewellyn family. Friends of ours through the close friendship between our daughters Kate and Nicole. Both families had spent all day Saturday together at MVALs and thats where the plan to hike together came about. Anyway we started at Ohlone college parking lot and took our time going up. There were nine of us all together. First time for the Lewellyn family going up the peak. We stopped at most of the famous rest stops along the way. Taking advantage of the shade since it was already getting warm. Especially during that first lonnngggggg descent up to the seasonal pond. Steve had bought a new camera and took some great pictures. Both at MVALs and on the hike. He deserves credit for most of the mother’s day hike pictures After the hike and a bit of a rest, we met back at Annette and Steve’s for Mother’s Day Dinner. After a couple of beers and Toto’s pizza appetizer it was a feast of BBQ’d Steak, sausages, salmon. Green Salad, Annette’s famous, fantastic tasting potato salad, and homemade apricot pie with ice cream and coffee for desert! WOO HOO!! NOW THATS GOOD EATIN!!!! Really a great day. Great weekend too! Can’t believe we survived it!
