56 degrees Farenheit / 13.3 Celsius on January 7 - not bad. Actually great (unless you run one of the ski resorts about an hours drive away).
So what do you do on a beautiful January day in Bristol - head over to Steele Creek Park, of course.
Today the Lake Ridge Trail came into play - 2.2 miles up and down and around the knobs from the Rooster Front trailhead. Then a hike across the bridge past the Nature Center, Lodge, and playground to the Wedding Chapel bridge. Then another 1.9 miles along the flat Lakeside Trail back to Rooster Front.
All told - about 5 miles.
Passed several other folks doing the same thing - enjoying a great park on a mild January day.
The ski slopes will do just fine this winter I'm sure - but for now, the 50's F / 13's C are just what the doctor ordered.
