Celebrate the Earth

Yesterday, Chris and I headed to 1.5 hours south of Albany to Ulster County to visit the town of Woodstock for the weekend! Since Friday was supposed to be the nicer day, we decided to do a hike that afternoon. Hiking seemed like a really great way to spend Earth Day! Even though it was little bit cold, the hike up Overlook Mountain got me working up a sweat. The hike is 4.0 miles round trip. There is another trail that is 8.0 miles up, but we took the shorter route.

This is the third time I’ve hiked this trail. Its short but still gives you quite the workout!

I always get so creeped out by the hotel ruins, I can’t help but take pictures!

Sometime I want to do the long hike! Can you imagine hiking 16 miles? Not me! I would love to try it though.

The top is always worth it.

After our hike, we checked in to the Inn on the Millstream, a cute little inn right in Woodstock.

The inn was literally on the stream. It was scenic! I bet its even lovelier in the summer time.
