ANOTHER HIKING OPPORTUNITY
Wendy and I have been talking about organizing another hike for anyone interested. Sunday hike to Our Lake (aka Hidden Lake) in the Bob. We’ll have to leave a bit on the early side, trailhead is near Choteau.
Should be gorgeous views. There are two big waterfalls on the hike and often mountain goats on trail. Dogs OK as long as they are under owners control. 7 mile loop with only 1,500 foot elevation gain on the entire hike. Wendy and I will both have bear spray. Recommended for everyone in that area.
Let me or Wendy know if anyone is interested. I did put it out there on the hiking group FB page, also. Wendy and I will go regardless.

P.S. For anyone joining us on the Our Lake hike this Sunday, July 18, meet at my house (315 4th Ave N) at 7am. It’s about a 2 hour drive to the trailhead.
Please bring your 10 essentials and lunch. There should be a few opportunities to refill water bottles if you have water filtration equipment. Otherwise, bring enough water for a 7 mile hike.
Plan on leaving for the trailhead at 7, starting hiking at 9 and returning to the trailhead about 3pm.

HAPPY 75TH BIRTHDAY, ELLIOTT MAGALNICK!
EDITOR’S NOTE: The following is condensed from a post on Caring Bridge, where Elliott’s son Joel has been posting updates about his dad from time to time. (see article on past rabbis in The Ram’s Horn.) It would be nice to send a card.
Elliott’s got a big birthday coming
Journal entry by Joel Magalnick — August 10
Hi everyone,
I realize it has been over a year and a half since I last posted, so I thought I’d give an update. Overall he appears to be doing quite well. He has been largely stable for the past couple years with some ups and downs here and there. With the onset of Covid, he has been more or less in lockdown in his room at Brookdale, but starting to venture out a little more for meals in a physically distanced cafeteria.
Since visitors aren’t allowed in the building he has gotten a few visits from friends through the window, where they chat with masks on at a six-foot distance.
… Believe it or not, the old man turns 75 next Wednesday, August 19th. It would be great if you could call or stop by. Unfortunately it’s not as easy as just picking up the phone and reaching him. He has trouble using his phone, even if it does ring, so to have a chat you’ll need to reach out to Brookdale directly at 303-364-7149 and have them come to the room with the phone. They prefer that you set up time to do the call or you even set up a Zoom chat, which the front desk can facilitate.
…Brookdale is at 150 Quebec St. in Denver, 80230.
He would love to have visitors! Stay healthy everyone.
Joel
DON’T MISS THIS SPECIAL ZOOM PROGRAM FROM ISRAEL at 8:00AM SUNDAY MORNING, 08/09/2020
Shalom,
Here is Zoom information for an incredible program on Sunday. My 92-year-old Rabbi was on the Exodus and this program will talk about it. Rabbi Birnbaum is beyond incredible as is his entire family. He is originally from Slovakia and was liberated at the age of 14 – he’ll tell the story on Sunday. It will be fun to see you if you join in on the Zoom. Here you go.
