8/16/17 Partridge Pond

Hadn't been here in awhile so gave it a try. Nice morning with temps in the 70's and very few bugs. Kelley was more motivated than usual and took the lead at the start.

Things to come

   All the small streams on the way to the pond were dry and this is the only water she found on the way

The good stuff

We rarely see anyone on this hike but today a couple had lugged an inflatable boat to the pond .

We had our apple snack and then back in the water before we head back

Blueberries are ripening

This worked out fairly well. Though enthusiastic at the start , Kelley slowed down later - still a nice little hike - a little over an hour and a half.
