Hiking in Delaware

Ok, so when you think of hiking in Delaware, what do you picture? Well, chances are, that's about what you get! But it's not the location nearly as much as it is the company! Tom and I hiked around Lums Pond, near Newark, DE. It was a 7 mile flat, mostly wooded loop around the pond. It was similar to Burke Lake or Lake Accotink in VA. Given that it is March, there wasn't much greenery, but it was still nice to be outside getting some fresh air and exercise. We followed up the hike with a much needed dinner at a local restaurant, where we were clearly the oldest people there (Newark is home to the University of Delaware), and coffee at Starbucks to fuel the drive home. It was a good day.
