Round is a shape

With the beautiful weather we had yesterday - and today may actually be too hot - I decided it would a great day to begin the long process of training for my hike of the Crawford Path to Mt. Washington in July.  So I headed to Sessions Woods in Burlington, a gem of a three-mile path through woods, past a bog with peepers and a pond with a beaver dam, some good up-hills and down-hills. 

The wood peckers were out in force, hammering away at trees all along the route.  The 'no- see-ums' we pesty as well.  The trail was nice and dry.  The sun was bright.  Met a number of people who had the same idea, people I hadn't seen in awhile.  In fact, I felt soooo good that when I finished, I decided to do it in reverse.  After all, while round IS a shape, it is not the ideal shape for hiking the White Mountains!  And what better day to start!

Today - well, that's a different story.  I've started with two Advil already!  Hmmm....and July isn't too far off!
