After the weather drama of the previous days, eleven Club members enjoyed a beautiful early fall day for our TKL Farewell Hike and Social on Wednesday, Aug 30. Starting out from the Cape Mudge Lighthouse parking lot, our route took us through the TKL campground. Several RVers were enjoying the cool, clear morning over propane campfires, the smell of bacon and coffee was very enticing. We followed the pretty and interesting trail to our turn around point at the Cape Mudge Village gate, enjoying lush blackberries on the way. Our hike then took us up past the Lodge, and counter-clockwise around the well-maintained TKL trail. The ravine stairway is a backwoods work of art!  From the bluffs we could see the impressive extent of the tidal flats below. In just under two hours we arrived at the Lodge in time for a coffee before ordering lunch. Joined by a spouse, twelve of us enjoyed a delicious lunch and social time together.  (7.3km, 1½ hours for the walk)
