Mogadore, sections 20-24.5 (5/30/20)

A bit chilly today- nice for me as long as sun made it through the variable clouds. Started off on a trail along shore of reservoir; that was a nice change from recent hikes, even with the mud challenge created by days of rain this past week. Still was fun to hop along sunken logs. Lots of people fishing today. As soon as we came out of the woods we came across a turtle in a drainage gulch along side of road, seemed lost so we took him down the road a bit into woods nearer the reservoir. Naturally, about a quarter mile further down the road we came across a beautiful marsh which would have been just perfect- hope he found the water through the woods, but at least he wasn’t in sun anymore. Rest of hike was all road, back roads made up somewhat for a lot of busy roads. Along the way we bought some local honey, looked in on a garden center where the only people wearing masks were the employees, looked at a small cute pop-up trailer for sale and debated its merits, and came across another lost turtle (that has to be some kind of a daily record). We did take a ‘short-cut’ that added mileage but kept us off 224- terrible road to walk along. True highlight of this trip was to come across the home of one of the Goodyear blimps! The size of the hanger was HUGE! Also peak rhododendron weekend- all seemed in full glory 🙂
