January 18 was scheduled for a 5 mile hike and soup party led by Marit Anderson and Mark Perschel, but weather had other things in store. With a winter weather advisory listed for the day and many hikers dropping out the day before - the leaders made a decision to cancel the hike at Patricia Ann Byrom Forest Preserve which is located on winding, rolling, and narrow Albemarle County roads, and offer walking on hiking trails from Old Trail Subdivision in Crozet (home of Marit and Mark) with a soup party after. Nine folks partook hour long walks, some before the party, and a second set after the party including Dianne Anderson, Sunny Choi, Margaret Helber, Brooks Fulton, Barbara Martin, Andre Meyer, Iva Gillet, and the hosts. All enjoyed chili, vegan vegetable soup, salad, bread, many adult beverages, hot cider, homemade toffee bars, biscotti, and snickerdoodles. Thanks to all who brought things to share, but most of all thank you to Sunny for her amazing Korean yodeling demonstration!
