2009 has been a busy year. But between life I managed to explore more of my home state than I’d ever experienced. Some highlights included hikes to Flat Rock, Pole Steeple, and the summit of Big (Tuscarora) Mountain. Holly and I went upstate for a week in September and took a day to visit Pennsylvania’s Grand Canyon, and I did some section-hiking of both the Appalachian and Tuscarora Trails. As always I am finding time to enjoy the great outdoors; now snow is on the ground, hunting season is almost over, and 2010 is right around the corner…
