Bulls Island to Frenchtown Bike Ride
May 11 2024

 

 

 

What a beautiful day for a bike ride! Roy led our group of 10 Alphorn bikers on this 18 mile trip to Frenchtown and back. We enjoyed a delicious lunch outdoors at the Cocina Del Sol. Robbie and her dog joined the lunchtime treat.  After lunch we had a leisurely ride back to Bulls Island where we said our goodbyes, thankful for another successful outing.

Bishop's Winery

Alphorners enjoyed time together on June 9th at the Bishop Estates Winery.   The weather was perfect, low humidity, lots of sun, and we had a spot in the shade, under the trees.  Sixteen members and two guests had time to enjoy the afternoon together.   The Chicken Buffalo was delicious, thank you Carole!    It’s always a popular event and we will be back there again.

 

Alphorn Picnic 2024

A beautiful day for a picnic as Jan hosted the annual fun filled pool party/picnic at the Clark ranch'

 

Alphorn at Tinicum 2024

The Tinicum Fireworks and Symphonia on 6/29 began well, overcast with a nice breeze and 17 Alphorners had a good time catching up on news.  The Symphony started playing at 8 PM and the rain started by 8:15.   Most of our group packed up and got to our cars before the downpour.   Unfortunately, the Symphony needed to stop when the lightning started.   The fireworks did go off during the rain, they seemed to be ignited quickly one after the other rather than any wait time between.   We had 6 hardy members who sat it out under their umbrellas.  Warmer than being in a snowstorm, eh?

Alphorn DineAround at Washinton Crossing Inn

We had 16 members at our first Summer Dine around on July 17th.   The weather was steamy outside, but we were very comfortable dining inside.   Mickey loved those oysters.

Black Bass Dine Around

Thirteen lucky Alphorners dined at the Black Bass in Lumberville on August 14th.   We had a beautiful view in a private room overlooking the river and the air conditioning was good to enjoy on a hot night.   FYI – George Washington did not sleep there.   The inn was built in the 1740’s and during the American Revolution the proprietor was a Tory who denied Washington accommodations when he asked to stay there.
