Walking into New Jersey and New York we were hit by bugs, heat and humidity. Summer is here, but so are the Hot Dog stands!



Should we give up and drive back home?……Nah…..we’re have a good time…



Jess is keeping the candy the Martin family sent to herself. (Thank you!!!)

Highest point in New Jersey.

In the Wallkill River NWR.


Twelve feet of shiny black snake making whoopee…very cool.

Happiness Is……Hot Dog stands 100 feet from the trail!!! Easy calories and ice-cold drinks!!!

Visit with Jess’s Uncle Bill in New York. He picked us up in the pouring rain from the trail….wonderful!! Here is a picture of us above his town of Rosendale, NY.

Hard trails require modern tools.
I believe Jess and Uncle Bill are related! Hi, Uncle Bill! 🙂

It must be a pain carrying that ladder around! All kidding aside, it looks like a great time.

Whew, we know Jess is tick-free, or Uncle Bill would not have his arm around her above the inspiring view of the Rosendale NY gorge.
