Trail Run

Late afternoon

A brisk trail run with Brigid on Saturday afternoon. We took the trail section from Northwestern to Bells Mill and up the hill to the newly created meadow. We followed this for a while, making our way down to the Rex Ave bridge, across, and up into the trails on the eastern side of the creek back towards Bells Mill. Just as we were nearing the bridge, we heard our names being called and saw Brigid's mom walking on the other side of the creek on Forbidden Drive. I was amazed at how she spotted us from so far away, but then I realized Brigid was wearing a bright sky blue t-shirt. We were just about finished anyway, so we made a U-turn at the bridge and joined her for the walk back to Northwestern. We must have been moving, because out of nowhere, we happened across Brigid's two uncles who were out walking the dog. Apparently they get out under the guise of walking the dog for an hour, but really only go for about 15 minutes and then sneak over to Brittingham's for a beer. Classic.

Unknown distance: 43 minutes.
