 Greetings!
Let us be thankful for life itself! We are truly blessed in this great United States of America, and with our President Barack Obama, the most powerful man in the free world, elected to a second term as president of all Americans!!
This is the time of year I reflect on the days and months and focus on what life changing experiences I have had, and the legacy on which I am building as my contribution to the world. While my deeds may seem small, I know some of them have had a great impact on some from the many personal stories I am told. They truly warm my heart.
I know now that I have finally discovered my purpose in life...Living my Life to the Fullest and helping others do the same, as we hike the wondrous wilderness and become one with God...wow! It is true that the universe opens up to you and literally brings you the things you need, whether you realize you need them or not, when you become one with God. These are the things promised, and if you believe it or not, that does not negate it happening, it is just a matter of you giving thanks upon acceptance.
This year is proving to be one of my best years ever! At the beginning of the year, I declared that I would Excel in 1012. Well, wow, I did not know just how much! What a banner year! Now I have to think of a great theme for 2012. If you have any, send them to me.
Just when I think life is great...it gets greater...and I expect it will contoinue through the new year! I am truly blessed and grateful for you and your continued support. Please know that I mean that from the depth of my heart and soul...Thank You, not just now during this season of thanksgiving, but all year long, and for the days and years yet to come!
Love, peace and joy,

We will meet inside the park near the west gate by the parking lot near the restrooms, behind Confederate Hall at the base of the mountain...our usual place.
We will hike the Cherokee Trail which explores much of the Natural District around the base of Stone Mountain. As the tradition has begun, Keeping It Wild hikers will join us again this year.
As always, wear sturdy shoes or hiking boots, and of course comfortable layered clothing. Bring water and snacks. According to Weather.com the forecast is mostly sunny with a high of 56 degrees. Bring water and snacks.

Unless you have a park pass or want to pay $10 to park, you can opt to park at the Stone Mountain MARTA Park & Ride lot for free. It is located off Manor or W Mountain between 4th and 5th streets. It is a very short walk to the walk-through gate, we will be straight ahead in the open area waiting for you.
