7.3 miles; Burrilville and Gloucester, RI

This was a PCHC hike which essentially duplicated Leg #2 of our North-South Trail hike, except I was just not feeling it. As a result I opted, since I’ve already done the N-S Trail, to take a road shortcut at the end that cut off about a mile or so of hiking. I’m not sure why, but my legs were really, really tired today.

Cool Mailbox

This was a very cool mailbox installation along a short stretch of road-walking. I love the crow and the hurricane lantern, and the antlers… I guess I just love the whole thing.

Richardson Pond

This the prettiest spot on the whole hike. It’s just as pretty as the first time. We saw some birdwatchers here with a gigantic telephoto lens.

Dam Monument

I noticed this monument at the dam this trip. It is part of the original 1883 dam on the Bowdish Reservoir.
