Rails to Trails

Today I went on a trail run on the Albany to Sasser rials to trails right of way.  I was supposed to meet some of the board members at the Fussell Road section, but I was late for the 9 AM start time.  I had my trail running shoes and my pack so I decided to do a little run.

The trail is not like most of the trails that I have run.  In fact it is not a trail, it is more like a road that has road base on it.  i have run some really rough trails so this was not too bad to run on.  I ran about 2 miles in just past a railroad bridge to where the road based ended.  I turned around and ran back to my truck parked on Fussell Road.

I may bring my mountain bike next time to get further into the trail next time.  Anyway I had a nich hot sweaty morning run and was happy to see some progress on the pathway from Albany to Sasser.

I also wanted to visit a few of my favorite spots before I left.

Georgia on my mind

Texas was not deep enough in the south for me so I relocated to Albany, Georgia. I have been her almost a month and the adventure of living in a new city and working at a new institution are still fresh. This week week as I walked across the campus with my paper notebook in hand I was whistling as I passed through groups of students go to classes. I noticed how everyone of them was either talking on a mobile device or listening to music on them. I marveled at how odd I must seem to them as I walked without having any electronic device turned on and instead i was making the music with my lips. Albany Georgia is a lot like Portland, only smaller and really flat. Albany has the Flint River running through the middle of the downtown area and lots of pine and pecan trees all over.
