Poughkeepsie!
... freezing! A wind blows through that is chilling. UGG boots for everyone.
I buy a fleecy and some shoes and then back on the road, back to my old friend exit 17, which second time round I know well. The drive on the minor roads through too Poughkeepsie, is very pretty and interesting. It is like there nas been no development since the 1970's. Crossing the Hudson River into Poughkeepsie is spectacular over a huge bridge.

A Very Good Day

Day 90: Graymoor Spiritual Center to RPH

Only 18 today so I arrive at camp at 4:30!! It's wonderful to just sit around. We are next to a road so I splurge and in true wilderness fashion, order a pizza with Alpine. We enjoy some of the amazing trail magic left behind by "Jim and Helen" from Manhattan. We bumped into them right after ...
