    A special thanks to Fernanda and Paul for driving all the way from Kitchener. Cyndy and her guest also attended, but decided against the hike. The rain cleared, and we decided to hike...got to tour the new visitor's centre. FYI: entrance to the park is now $5.50 per person, and includes access to the centre. Thanks to all those who made the effort to attend. I coughed all the way home...NeoCitrin is my friend:)

Who attended?

    •  The location was very nice, great scenery, and Ball's Falls Conservation area is very pretty. It was great weather too - the sun was out and the breeze was nice. As usual the company was also enjoyable. 
    •  I hadn't done this part o fthe Bruce in a while and it was a great trek.
