I'm calling this a "mini" pub crawl because it involves visiting one restaurant....not multiple bars.  There are so many restaurants in the Shrewsbury Street area of Worcester, for starters, that I have not tried, so I thought I would combine exercise with trying a different restaurant each walk.  We will start at the restaurant of choice (suggestions are welcomed), go for a walk and end up back at the restaurant for appetizers and beverages.  Let's get together for a walk...approximately 1 to 2 …

This is a hiking group for people who, like me, hike at a slow and steady pace. I love the outdoors and I love hiking, but am often lagging behind.

Most hikes will be within a couple of hours drive from Worcester (there is another MeetUp for slower hikers that does hikes in White Mountains) but …

For others, it will be a means of creating first drafts or potential areas to explore further. The group is suita …
