Friday Morning Walk
Due to popular demand --- at least one person requested this -- we're going to do a 2-3 hour walk starting at Hill House. Will do bike ride in future when my foot is feeling better.
We will just bop around the neighborhood or park for 2-3 hours. The Chestnut Hill Wissahickon area, if you don't know, is about as nice as it gets.

Always good idea to bring some food, your camera, and on hot days a dry shirt that you can change into.
Warm weather hike info:
-- Apply sunscreen before leaving home. See more about sunscreens under Files.
-- On real hot days, bring an umbrella for the sun. Highly recommend: http://www.campmor.co...
-- For hikes in a park it's best to wear long sleeve shirts and long pants for protection against bugs, thorn bushes, poison ivy, etc. I'm often regretful when I don't take my own advice.
-- Bring lots of water. Best to get a 3 liter hydration pack or reservoir. More about water: http://www.hikingarou...
-- Only a forecast of thunderstorms and torrential rains will cancel a hike. A normal rain is no problem in warm weather.

will this be a beginner ride? Rest stops and what pace? Looks like a slow pace with stops for the time it will take.
