Stunning views from up there, including views toward where we live, 50 miles or so in the distance. You can see Sugarloaf from my office window. I\u2019ve forgotten what it felt like to having thigh burn; some of that hill is straight up. When we got to the top, we dropped down the other side and hiked through the forest. The terrain is rough going: loose rocks under fallen leaves. We went about 6 miles, and my hips surely knew it. I\u2019m going to have to work up to getting more miles in so that Hubby will let me come with on his longer hikes. When we got home, we tried putting up Christmas lights, but half of them only half worked. Hubby went to get new ones, which I didn\u2019t necessarily like since buying new lights isn\u2019t very green. But the lights will brighten the winter.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; height: 1725px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 325px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 36.3087%; height: 325px;\">Eager at the the hike&#8217;s start.<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 63.6913%; height: 325px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27a-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4512\" src=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27a-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27a-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27a-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27a-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27a-rotated.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 250px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 36.3087%; height: 250px;\">Looking toward home.<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 63.6913%; height: 250px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4513\" src=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27b-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27b-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27b-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27b-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27b-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27b.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 325px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 36.3087%; height: 325px;\">The last steep ascent to the top.<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 63.6913%; height: 325px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27c-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4514\" src=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27c-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27c-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27c-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27c-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27c-rotated.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 250px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 36.3087%; height: 250px;\">Stopping for tea and crumpets.<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 63.6913%; height: 250px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27e-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4516\" src=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27e-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27e-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27e-1024x769.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27e-768x577.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27e-1536x1154.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lunarivervoices.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/11-27e-rotated.jpg 1544w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 250px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 36.3087%; height: 250px;\">The mountain was a Civil War-era signaling station.
