You can look back at my June post and see much more and some same about this adventure. We were here on June 29 and my post was amongst the June 30 collection of adventures - near the end. Here we come to a warning but decide to check it out.
The trail was closed here last June as well, but we were almost sure they must have repaired it. But no, there is still a big washout dividing the trail. Not clear here, but photos from last June show more.
Once on the highway we each had a photo in mind. Susan focused more on the craggy mountains, I was focusing more on the Concrete sign. So betwixt us both you see, we got ‘em both.
The famous Concrete .. furnaces?
Last June we happened upon the Senior Center free lunch. Checking it out, the staff person encouraged us to come and eat with them as they needed more “numbers” of people for their rolls. So we did, but were sure to not eat free as we gave a healthy donation. This time she (wish we had gotten her name) remembered us, welcomed us heartily and recalled quite a bit about us.
The Bar B-Q lunch was hardy and good. We left our healthy donation as a thank you and in hopes it would be of some help for this little town with the open heart.
