The Half Moon Bay Whatevering group is meeting in Princeton this Saturday to celebrate the Solstice while taking a hike over the bluffs onto a protected beach. We will be walking about 4 miles on the beach, and more on the bluffs. Expect to see seals, sea lions and pelicans.

We’ll be giving a nod to the Solstice/Litha by lighting some candles and celebrating what we have. If you like, bring any thing portable to eat and share (fruits/veggies/bars/cookies/bread/pop tarts- whatever.) Or don’t. Either way, it’s all whateveringly good.

For more information about this hike, please see http://www.meetup.com/whatevering/calendar/10651202/
