I think the trail near Pine Ridge would be a good option for Saturday. The weather forecast shows mostly sunny with a high around 72. We should start early around 7 AM to avoid the midday heat. The loop is about 8 miles with moderate elevation gain so it should take us about 4 to 5 hours depending on pace. I can bring snacks and plenty of water. Let me know if you want to invite anyone else from the group. We will need to park at the main lot and the parking pass is available at the entrance. I will bring my map and compass just in case. There are a few stream crossings so waterproof boots would be a good idea. We can stop at the overlook for lunch with a nice view of the valley. I will check the trail conditions later this week and send you an update.

I tried that new pasta recipe you sent me last week and it turned out really well. The sauce was a bit thicker than I expected but the flavors came together nicely after I added a bit more basil. I used whole wheat pasta instead of regular and it held up fine. Next time I might add some roasted vegetables like zucchini and bell peppers to give it more texture. The recipe made enough for about four servings so I had leftovers for lunch the next day which was convenient. I think the key was letting the sauce simmer for at least 20 minutes to let the herbs really meld together. I also added a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle warmth. Let me know if you have any other suggestions for variations or if you have tried making it with a different protein added in. I am thinking about trying it with some grilled chicken next time to see how that changes the overall dish.
