If we have to go with Plan B, I am more than happy to work with you Jason on some other stuff to check out in the Harrisburg area such as the Everhart Covered Bridge.

Ok, thanks I will keep that in mind but again as long as there is no heavy rain, even if it is just overcast we should be good for the walk to Howard tunnel

I may have to bow out of this one because Life Happens; I now have A LOT going on in the days before and after the meet.  Saturday is at the moment still do-able but Sunday is spoken for.

Laura:
Me, Mike, and Rainee are in! We have a friend who is interested in coming with us so there might be a fourth person with us!

FYI, the walk to Howard Tunnel is 1.8 miles each way for a round trip total of 3.6 miles...I'd recommend for people to bring folding camp chairs with them if they are unable to walk. Our friend won't be walking, and if Rainee is asleep in the car when we get to that stop then one of us will be hanging back with her.

This is it, 6 more days to go! I have made reservations at the restaurant and also Steph may be joining us for the lunch portion (she is currently in Harrisburg spending time with family this week) At this point the weather is looking good with a high of 74 and partly sunny skies for Saturday so it looks like we will be doing a hike on the rail trail to see the oldest functioning railroad tunnel in the USA!

This is also where I plan to do our group photo so make sure also to have good walking shoes, the trail is level but watch out for joggers and bikers too. I am finalizing the itinerary and will have print outs at the restaurant. As for carpooling we should be fine with leaving cars in the parking lot of the restaurant, I personally only have room for one person if I drive my minivan as it is full of merchandise for my other hobby related activities on Sunday.

And speaking of I will have to head to Hershey by 5:30 to get set up for that event so you all are free to do whatever you want for dinner, if you all pic somewhere in the Harrisburg area I may be able to join you when I am done unloading the van and setting up. So, after we make our hike to Howard tunnel and back to the parking area at Gladfelter's Station we will be "open" for whatever you all like to do, I was thinking we still trace the Susquehanna Trail north of York to Lemoyne but again that is up to you all. Looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend!!  :)
