AM/Lunch: 7.5 miles. HR 138.

Mostly on trails. Slow. Couldn't figure out how to connect various points of the trails but then figured it out. Several sections of trail are not maintained or really used. I was getting ticked but then I began to figure it out and I stopped for a few seconds at the Yates Cider Mill to watch the kids pet baby goats. I then realized I might be perceived as creepy, so I didn't linger. Hot, sunny, and chaffy.

PM: 4 miles with Megan. HR 125.

They don't make the right kind of cider!

I know. I just saw the comments from last April. That was a fun thread. I'm hoping to find some Jack's here this fall. Sadly all the booze is at least as expensive as Philadelphia. I thought the Midwest pricing I used to get was the norm. Sadly, no.

Awww. Don't worry, I'm sure there are much creepier things people do with baby goats.

Glad you're figuring out the trails up there. Always interesting starting up in a new homestead.
