A HAPPY NEW YEAR of hiking the BT! Actually amazed we have done it for two years now with some degree of regularity and accomplishment…HIGH FIVE! Since we were on holiday break this past week we managed to hike three days in between the rain without too much damage to our feet. As our travels take us farther from home, we have to be prepared to make camp somewhere and hike multiple days in a row…but that will wait for warmer weather. Today we hiked through downtown Medina, which actually was a nice little town that seemed to have an over abundance of bakeries which I could not take advantage of- in pre-COVID times we would definitely have stopped in one of them for lunch. BIG SHOUT OUT to SPOKES, the coffee house which is associated with Planet Joy, where our friend Debbie is art director- give it a try! We finished on a Rails & Trails path that was a nice break from the noise of walking on the road. A nice mix of off and on road hiking today, again, just nice to get out and be outside.
