week started in the Cornish Town Forest and the trail climbs to a clearing where there are good views
of Mt Ascutney. There were 9 walkers and two dogs and I gathered it was a beautiful day. Before I
post the pictures I thought I'd let everyone know that I hiked in the National Shenandoah Park with my
sister and cousin last week to a beautiful waterfall. Of course I did not have my camera with me. We also walked on some wood trails behind the Montpelier estate (James Madison home) in Virginia.

Walk on Wednesday June 12
We walked on the roads today after a few very soggy days of weather thanks to tropical storms
though the weather wasn't tropical. We took a five mile loop starting at Hell Hollow Road, continuing
onto Kenyon, Dodge, Lang , St Gaudens and back to Hell Hollow. We walk by some famous
places mainly the home of the late JD Salinger. The views from his estate are wonderful though
because of the clouds we didn't get great pictures. There were 9 adults, one baby and 4 dogs. This
time I did take a good picture of the baby. This walk goes up and down the hills of Plainfield and
Cornish and we pass by some beautiful gardens. Pictures to follow shortly.
Next week we go to the Eshqua Bog to find lady slippers and then hike Mt Tom in Woodstock. I
hope we get fabulous pictures. Our camera pros weren't on today's walk!
