Day Eighty-Seven 

Today I did two hikes that I’ve done before in the past, both while in treatment. Back then I did them individually, not in one day, and they were hard. Today, I did them together and they were not hard. I can’t believe there is no snow in January. But I am grateful because it makes the hikes much easier for me. Cobble Hill is a very interesting area that I would love to explore more in the future. According to the guidebook, branching off of Cobble Hill Trail, is South Landaff Rd, which is an abandoned road that led to some old farmsteads which were active in the nineteenth century. There are said to be some old cellar holes, an apple orchard, and remnants of a farm community. I definitely plan on going back to explore this area when I’m done tracing. Jericho Rd. Trail leads to an old fire tower past an area that was recently logged. This is another trail that is made up of old logging roads and was originally constructed as a horse trail. As much as I love the historical aspects of both of these trails, Cobble Hill is the one I am most excited about revisiting in the future.
