| Comments: |
Temps in the mid-60s in November. Obviously a day to be outside. The clouds came down and crushed the long views, but overall, it was a good day to be on the trail. How often does one get to wear shorts and a tee shirt in November in New England? Gotta grab that one while it lasts.
Pictures and a more detailed write-up are on my blog as always. Share and enjoy! |
