7.2 miles; Exeter, RI Another “mileage” hike. I had a lot of junk food to make up for this week! I really like this hike a lot; I had forgotten how much. Great weather, too. Back pain was almost non-existent so whatever I did wrong last week I managed to fix. Yay! Don’t know that […]

3.9 miles; Exeter and Richmond, RI A continuation of the earlier hike today, still looking for Black Trumpets. I did not find any here, either, but I did find something unexpected… that I’m allergic to bee stings. Oh, happy joy. I totally need to revise my Favorite Hikes page about this hike. There’s now a […]
