Rob and I drove to Vermont yesterday to drop off Amanda at camp. She’s a junior camp counselor this summer for two separate weeks and each week requires two 8 hour round trips to VT. So we decided to take a detour and go for a hike while we were up there in beautiful Vermont.
Rob scouted out some trails around our route and we settled on the Chases Mountain trail in Middlesex, VT. We hiked around 6 miles and 1500 feet of elevation in 3 hours and 30 minutes. I’m a slow hiker…Rob gets lots of rest time waiting for me. It was warm and humid. We were soaked in sweat. Another hiker reported seeing a mama bear and 4 cubs, but we didn’t see any bears. Maybe we should carry bear spray. We got home and I had a 90 sleep score last night. All good.
We have been talking a lot lately about what we enjoy, the future, and what we should continue doing. We constantly debate the size of our goat herd, fitness goals, wanting to ride the horses more and compete, and having some more white space in our schedule. Hobbies should be fun and not feel like work. Stay tuned as we find the right answers.
