Running in Goshen at DAR State Forest with Tippi today.

Big loop of a run in Hawley - Dubuque State Forest with Tippi.  We were joined by a random hiker's dog for most of the run as the dog seemed excited to see Tippi and the hiker told us to "take him with you".  I warned that it would be a couple hours and that was fine, so we had company.

Come to find out, the hiker was an ancestor of Harrison Parker, the historian from Hawley that had written the fine guide to the forest.  I had corresponded with Mr. Parker way back in the early 1990's via postal mail - he was a wonderful resource for me with regard to learning Hawley.

People State Forest run with Tippi.

Run with Tippi from the Berkshire Natural Resource Council's Hoosac Range Trail on Route 2 just above the Hairpin Turn.  Rambled out toward Spruce Hill, but we lost the trail above the Hoosac Tunnel crossing and turned back.

Back running in Connecticut at Peoples State Forest with Tippi.

Drove out to Kutsher's Resort in Montecello, New York for the All Tomorrow's Parties Festival as a guest of Bardo Pond.  Listened to a wonderful set by Fursaxa prior to settling in for Bardo Pond.

K.M. Dubuque State Forest in Hawley to zig-zag through the Goat Head Trail out to the Hawley Bog (Cranberry Bog) with Tippi.

A visit to Mohawk Trail State Forest to navigate the Trout Brook Trail to Harwood Road in Savoy.  Tippi ended up brutally covered in caked mud during this exploration, so we needed to wash her off in the Cold River once back at Route 2.
