It was a beautiful fall day and we took a day trip up to the Hudson Highlands State Park for a hike. I'll admit I had some trepidation about going to a place called Breakneck Ridge, which is considered a somewhat advanced hike with steep rocks that had to be scrambled over (and yes, some people have fallen and died from the hike.) After packing more snacks than two people could eat in a week, it turned out to be just my kind of hike--rigorous and even difficult and scary at times, but really, really fun.
For the record, we did get lost briefly when the trail markers suddenly disappeared, and I did experience momentary panic. But then the two orthodox Jewish girls who we kept running into during the hike also got lost and wandered our way and we figured out where we needed to go. Whew.
