Hiking and Mt Monadnock

Ehren and I went on a good day hike up Mt Monadnock in September. This was training for our big presidential climb (which we are postponing a few months). We took the longer, trail less traveled route as we have never seen so many people at a mountain before. There was a park ranger directing the parking, reminding us of fairgrounds.We had a good afternoon on the mountain and got down just as darkness fell.

We also enjoyed time at Plum Island after a hurricane blew through. The waves were huge and the water was much warmer then it's usual frigidness; we realized the hurricane brought warm water from the south.
