The "Sweatshirt Club"

You've heard of the "Breakfast Club", the "First Wives Club", the "Mickey Mouse Club"... 
but have you ever heard of 
the "Sweatshirt Club"?

No I hadn't either, all I knew for sure is that I wasn't a member and to

be honest I was very SAD not to have been a member.

We were up in Mammoth recently with

a great group of couples.  
6 couples

to be exact, and we did everything from eating, laughing, hiking, fishing, and drinking to shopping.

For some it was their first time camping, 
for others it was

their first time 
NOT 
camping.  

(but that's a different post)

One of the days, we went our separate ways.  

A few of us (not me)

went on a hike to Rainbow Falls in Devil's Postpile  

A couple of us (not me) went on a motorcycle ride.... 

and

Others of us (me included) 

went to a pretty little lake called Virginia Lake.  

It was so still, calm and serene.  

Just beautiful!  

It was my first time fishing from a float tube and I couldn't have

done it on a more perfect lake.

I had a very successful afternoon

on the float tube.  Which is code for

I didn't fall in and I caught a couple of fish.

That evening however, I found

out what those 2 fish cost me....that's right!

A spot in the "Sweatshirt Club"

Well as luck would have it, these ladies went on

the hike to Devil's Postpile and did a little

light shopping.  While they

were waiting for the bus to take them back from the trailhead they picked up

these sweatshirts.... and preceded to flaunt 

them in front us.  They coyly waited until the evening got chilly

and one by one put on their sweatshirts.

It was all in good fun of course, because

I am happy to say  

the next day Sheryl and Sue

headed me down into the village and I

got my very own sweatshirt.  

Can't wait to get back up there and wear it!!!
