South Falls
On Tuesday, August 26, Jeanette and I joined the Dallas Retirement Village bus for an outing to Silver Falls State Park. The park is filled with memories for us. My first visit was 80 years ago to a plumber's picnic. We arrived in my dad's 1940 GMC panel truck. My next visit to the park was seven years later for a week at church camp in the old CCC barracks. Jeanette attended Girl Scouts Camp there in the 50's and then again to work as a camp counselor. In an amazing coincidence, Jeanette and I got married here on May 9th of 1993.
On this trip, I got to hike down under the South Falls with four of DRV's lovely's, LaVerda Gallager, Jeanette Scott, Ginny Wyman, and Mavis Cloutier.
This shows the complete group just after finishing a delightful lunch, after a fun time of hiking and exploring the South Falls area. Thanks go to Wellness Director Francy Stoyer, Bus Driver Lane Sewell, and their helpers Nat and Robin for a very memorable day.
