Taconic Crest Trail Run with RunSteveo and Dusty.

We got a ride from Oblong Road, where I left my truck, to the start with RunSteveo's folks.  Excellently great people, and I consider both close friends.  

We really struggled finding the trail-head, God Bless Steveo's parents for sticking with us, and allowing Dusty to tag along.
