Birthday on Wachusetts
Having turned 33, Sara, Bella, and I took a short hike at Mt Wachusett in the late afternoon. We headed up the Bolton Pond trail (humming Michael Bolton's version of Sitting on the dock of the bay) past Bolton Pond (admiring the handiwork of the beavers who added a couple of feet to the height of the dam) and the 8th wonder of the world, Balance Rock. Balance Rock consists of a large rock balancing on top of another rock. We continued our trek up the Semuhenna trail, connected to the West Side Trail, and headed back downhill via the Old Indian Trail back to Balance Rock (still precariously perched!). A nice hike a short distance from Worcester.
