Dec 4, 2010...Time for the Annual Christmas Party/Dinner. We all gathered at the Park City Diner in Lancaster, Pa. for a delicious meal. We all ordered off the menu from the senior menu..A large selection and also large portions were given. I think half the group ask for a box for leftovers..way too much food for only $7.99/8.99 cost.

Audrey was the Host, she made little silk bags/bells filled with a sample of chocolates. Also we had a big basket of candy for all to enjoy. The waitress even dug in and took handfulls for their treat. We had the "Best" Waitreses. The food was Hot and Fast for our table. We had a private room in the back to ourselves. We arrived at 1pm and left at 4pm. Audrey also had Poinsettas and a small christmas tree for decoration on the table. We had a long table for all 14 to sit at.

There were the Korenys, Landvaters, Olshefskis, Jacobs, Leitners, Obers, and Carl Light & Christine(Lou &Steph's grandaughter) at the Dinner. Good time by all..the Flowers were won by JoAnn Olshefski and Stephanie Jacobs & the Tree was won by Carol Leitner.

"Thanks SO MUCH" to Audrey for a beautiful set-up and hosting the Dinner!!!

Don't forget the Jan. Dinner (see the newsletter!!!!)

Koreny are out west in Idaho/Montanna Border

At the Idaho/Montana border we rode The Hiawatha Rail-Trail which was opened in 2001. The 15 mile trail has 10 tunnels, one of which is 1.75 miles long, and 7 trestles. At the bottom of the downhill trail, the bikes were loaded into a converted school bus; we were driven to the top where we then rode through the 1.75 mile tunnel a second time to our truck. Lights are required as the tunnel is pitch black darkness. The views along the trail were spectacular!.... The Korenys
