the Way of the Turtle

0.6 Mile Walk Along the Mohawk Hudson Bike Path
Saturday, November 28, 2009

After dinner we stopped at the Niskayuna Lions Park for a short walk along the bike path under the light of the waxing moon. Unfortunately, my left calf was developing a cramp (undoubtedly from trying to protect my bad knee during all the walking we did today) so we didn't get far before we had to turn around, but we did hear geese and ducks honking and quacking out on the water in the dark, and even spotted a heron down at the edge of the river near the path. As it turned out, we came back at just the right time, since a few briefs spurts of rain came down just as we got back to the car.
