A few of us spent the evening of July 4th at the Brentwood concert series that featured The Downtown Band and fireworks.  It proved to be a very popular choice with a great turnout in the park!

We kicked off summer by taking a kayak trip to Burgess Falls on June 22nd.  The falls are amazing and it was nice to approach them from the water instead of our usual access by hiking!
