….another blog
Today started out with blueberry pancakes followed by a dive in
the hills – along with millions of other people. We parked to do a short hike and ended up
talking to a NF Ranger for some time. He
was very helpful and friendly. We
started a short hike to Franconia Falls that turned in to a little over a 6
miler. We hadn’t taken water with us
because we weren’t planning on a 6 miler.
They trail itself was a easy one, an old railroad bed with a very
gradual elevation. It was good. The rain held off until the end so we only got
a little wet.
We had lunch in the car
which was dried than having lunch at a picnic table out in the rain. Tonight we are warm and dry in a motel room. Considering
that they are predicting over an inch of rain tonight the room is the right
place for us to be.
Tomorrow – Laundromat in the morning and then…we’re really
not sure. Monday we’re hoping to meet up
with a guy that Jerry hiked with during his spring hike on the beginning of the
AT. Gray Ghost has flipped flopped and
will be near us in Gorham on Monday.
If we get some sun soon we hope to get to the top of Mt
Washington but the forecast isn’t too promising. At this point it looks like mostly rain
during the coming week.
No bear or moose sightings yet. Hopes are still high.
