After a great night's sleep in a bed, Footloose and his daughter Janice and I took off over the Hudson River and into the hills. Much cooler and less humid today than the last few so it made for very comfortable hiking. Nice, fairly gentle terrain today, and Janice really did great on her first day out. It makes me remember my Mom's first day on the trail, and it made me smile to remember how much fun it was to have her with me for that week and to share a piece of my dream.
We ended the night with a campfire and good conversation. It's always nice to be back out on the trail after a night in town.
