2 miles; Wrentham, MA This was a PCHC hike, and more of a social gathering than a real hike, although there was a hill, and the view was fantastic. It’s always great to get together with friends, and these are friends I made on the dreaded “social media.” Rather than isolating, I find social media a […]

1.42 miles, Ledyard, CT I decided to do two shorter walks today on properties that were on my “Hikes I’d Like to Do” list. The first was on this Avalonia Land Trust preserve. Avalonia, I love you.

Still, perfect day in the woods with new friends. There were lots of these ferns just lighting up sections of the woods. […]
