It was dreary! I staggered to the window and looked for Mr. Sunshine, he wasn't there. The liquid drops of sunshine bounced on the deck doing the bounce and splat dance, I'd never heard that tune before, it was a little soggy! That is OK- this isn't a scheduled Take a Hike Day, it is a scheduled Take a Break Day. Monday -Thursday were the do it or die days, and I did it! Very proud of myself, for being disciplined enough to get out of bed four days in a row and go hiking. Have been working the afternoon/night shift, commonly called the second shift, getting home at 12:30am. Real easy to sleep late in the morning until time to get ready to go to work again.Don't like this shift, but only work it one week out of four, not to bad! When you work for someone else you just have to take the good with the bad and move on.
Paris Mountain State Park, the go to place when there's not time to drive to the mountains. A nice park close to Greenville SC. Lots of trails for both the experienced hiker and the inexperienced hiker. Open to mountain bikers Sunday-Friday on most of the trails. I hiked the Brissy Ridge Trail on Monday,Tuesday, and Wednesday. This trail gives a good work out and takes an hour or hour and a half. On Thursday I hiked to the North Lake. A very beautiful 15 acre lake just sitting there on the mountain. It was a two hour hike there and back.
No, nothing fun happened, nothing bad happened, nothing exciting happened, just a good four mornings of hiking.
On land or lake,
Turtle
