Up early to drop DL at the airport for a 6 a.m. flight;  I gathered up my gear for a trip to the Folks for Thanksgiving.  On the way out, I stopped at DAR and decided to run along Ashfield Trails from West Road to the Bullitt Reservation, making my way through Chapel Ledge and Chapel Falls.

Totaled 8.5-miles of wonderful running, and the extended visit at my Folks was really enjoyable.
