Friday night's trek in Gatineau Park was truly wonderful. Coordinating our shoes and car pools was a little confusing but I think the toughest part was just dragging our butt out of our houses on a cold Friday night. Hats off to us all that hauled ourselves out into the woods. Eighteen of us made our way to the Visitor's Centre in Chelsea. To the left of the Centre we gathered at the 'shack' which was locked up and booked for a group of 50 which were ahead of us. We followed the path past the old Visitors Centre and across the road. Lee pointed us in the right direction and before we knew it were trekking up and down the rolling hills of Gatineau Park. Our adventure took us to a look out at the top of a hill where we saw the lights of the village and stars above. We were out in the woods for about an hour. It was glorious! Cheryl even sold a house while we were out there.
Some of us continued the adventure, in search of a beverage. Believe it or not, about 8 of us ended up at Puzzles in Westboro. Melanie and Raquel even took to the Karaoke stage and entertained us all. I never thought I would venture into Puzzles but I guess you can go anywhere and have a good time if you are with the right people. For future reference the regular Karaoke crowd is pretty good at Puzzles and I have a feeling we will be joining them on stage again. A reminder to all, I'm a dancer not a singer. I'm happy to be anyone's do-wop girl!
