The Devil's Hopyard--Waterfalls and Trail
Просмотров 8421 день назад
Trailing at the Devil's Hopyard State Park in East Haddam, Connecticut. Beautiful waterfalls at the beginning of the video, not far from the parking lot. The trail I eventually hopped on was slightly challenging with boulders and inclinations; not recommended for folks with bad ankles, knees, or hips. I'm sure there were other trails easier in the park, but this is the one I walked with Jack. U...

So many people in this cemetery were born in the 1600s, that I don't make special mention when their graves appear in the video. Quite a few people lived into their 80s, and a few into their 90s. And veterans of various wars were represented here, including: King Phillip's War, French-Indian War, Revolutionary War, War of 1812, and Civil War. The first lieutenant governor of Connecticut is buri...

A Walk in the Woods AND a Reservoir Find--Glocester, RI
Просмотров 54Месяц назад
Durfee Hill Management Area in Glocester, Rhode Island has no proper trails, so I didn't expect much when I walked Jackie there, using the Route 44 entrance. But there are UNMARKED paths that lead into the woods, and to a reservoir. I can't stress the word "unmarked" enough. You really need to pay attention walking here, or you will get lost easily. But if you follow the correct off-shoots of t...
Est in 1638. The Oldest Maintained Cemetery in the US--Myles Standish Burial Ground in Duxbury, MA
Просмотров 622 месяца назад
So many in this cemetery born in the 1600s, and a few that came over on the Mayflower. Some of the more interesting stories emerging from these graves: A man likely born in Harwich, England in the 1590s, and came over on the Mayflower likely as a cooper. He died near 88 years old in Duxbury, MA, and may have been involved in a love triangle that included Myles Standish himself. The girl who dro...
