| Interesting Green course at Surebridge Mountain in Harriman. It was kind of a big circle, and some of the legs were fairly easy navigationally if you used the big handrails properly. However, I did still manage to mess up two controls; # 3 by not checking my compass enough (especially as I walked right by the proper stream!), and # 5 on a parallel feature, but I think I only lost about 6-7 minutes at most. On this terrain, that's pretty good (for me). :-)
Warm weather (finally; first hot run of the year; I carried water but should have carried Gookinade--which I drank afterwards) -- mid-70's in the middle of the day. Sure was nice for hanging around afterwards.

Checked out the slump on the side of Rt. 66 where it's about 40-50 feet above the nearby creek. Still a couple of feet from Rt. 66, but I bet they'll have to come in to stabilize the slope.

Photo (battery ran out on my camera; I had taken a couple of others but they didn't register. I'll have to go back)

| Exerc. Class 55:00 [2] | |
| |
| Standard ex. class (at The Firm), back after a week off (session break; she takes a break every 6-7 weeks, usually coinciding with a Monday holiday). Nice to be back. :-) Not a really strenuous session, but I did work up a sweat doing weights after the second step portion.

| Event: Five Ponds Local

| Note | |
| |
| Skipped the WCOC meet; downpours and a 1:45 drive each way (plus a headache) did not foretell an enjoyable day if we went. Stayed in and rested and lit a fire in the woodstove...
