Let’s have a big show of hands for Laura Kennedy Gould! When Laura retired a handful of years ago, she stepped up and offered to start and lead the WABI Weekday Walkers that walk on… wait for it… Wednesdays.
Eight years have now passed and Laura hasn’t missed a beat. She has scouted out, pre-selected and mapped walks in this Highline area. On the third Wednesday of every month, at 9:00 a.m., Laura has led other walkers on 2.5 – 3 mile walks in Burien, Normandy Park, Des Moines, Tukwila and SeaTac: downtown bakery walks, beach walks, nature trails and sometimes hidden, hard-to-discover spots. Just think of all the exploration and conversation we’ve enjoyed because of Laura’s efforts!
Laura is now passing the torch as the WABI Weekday Walk Leader to Audrey Lipps. Laura, along with her husband, continues to explore far-off, distant places around the world from their home here in Burien, and she remains on the WABI Board.
Thank you, Laura. Brava!
