8.95 miles; Pembroke & Duxbury, MA Alas, today was my last ever section of the BCT. It was almost entirely in Duxbury, and it was pretty fantastic. Duxbury managed to thread almost their entire part of the trail through conservation properties, so there was minimal road-walking. This section was a lot of fun, and very […]

7.86 miles; East Bridgewater and Hanson, MA Today I cracked 200 miles on the BCT and yet…sigh. Once again, this section included only a brief, albeit fascinating, hike in the woods and a ton of roads. Also sad because there are only 2 sections left. And what the heck is with this weather? Once again […]

7.17 miles; Brattleboro, VT The hubs and I took a short, 2-night trip up to Brattleboro, Vermont, to do some recreating and eat at our favorite restaurant, TJ Buckley’s. The B&B we stayed in, 1868 Crosby House, backed onto a big property called The Retreat Farm, and it had 9 miles of hiking trails. Sold! […]

The confusing part was the contradiction between the trail Guide and the blazing, and the boring part was nearly 3-3/4 miles of road walking. This section […]

There were some gorgeous trails and it was a beautiful hiking day, weather-wise. I’ve been very lucky all along with the Bay Circuit Trail hikes as […]

7 miles; Coventry and Foster, RI Today I hiked with my new hiking buddy Mary, and we had a lot of fun looking at old rock walls and cairns. Also too, it was a good workout, as this trail system always is. The weather was again perfect for hiking. Just cool enough to keep you […]
