A nice walk

My better half and I took a walk up some of the Number Nine Trolley Trail in Oella/Catonsville. Then we hiked up and down Old Ellicott City.

It was a day in the low 70s and a very strong breeze so it was a very enjoyable walk.

It’s great when there is strong wind working. Helps keep the nats and flies away.

I’m impressed with the maintenance they do on this trail. It’s a very tough one with lots of washout issues. Photo by Mike Hartley

I like getting down close to the water and listening to it roll over rocks.
