I am a maybe for this year (again). Last years injury never quite healed and wound up with having the knee surgically repaired (arthroscopic clean up and some microfracture surgey to stimulate some replacement cartilage) a couple of weeks ago. Time frame for getting fully back into things is 3 to 4 months. I am currently moving around much better but don't want to risk messing things up...but hey you never know and I might just show up

I'm not 100%, but pretty certain I will be there.St. Helena Picnic area is how far from the entrance closest to Geneseo? Do you guys do lunch about half way around or after we finish up?

Thanks for organizing!

From the north entrance, it's a good 20 minutes driving the park speed limit.

Last year I don't think we stopped for lunch because it was cold and the weather was horrible.

I just snacked on granola bars and jerky on the way.
If things aren't wet, my guess is that we would hit the Middle/High falls area around noon and can eat then.

I'm iffy for Saturday. I slid halfway down our hardwood carpetless stairs today and my lower back bounced on the steps repeatedly in the same spot on about 7 steps. Lets just say it doesn't tickle right now. I feel old even though the birthday ending in a 0 doesn't happen for a few months.

....aaaaaaand my toner order was mysteriously missing the criticalest portion of the order so I've got a machine bone dry out of cyan until it comes in. I just need the Bills to draft a running back tonight and my day will be imperfectly perfect!
