Not Overlooked

It's been cold here ... which I guess is normal for January. But, I wanted to get out and do a hike so that my muscles don't turn to Jello(tm). I decided to do a quick hike with Howie up Overlook mountain in the afternoon... after it warmed up to about 25 degrees (woot!). The trailhead is near Woostock - the mecca of aging hippies and hippy-wannabees. The trail is basically a gravel jeep road, so the walking is easy. There is still very little snow in the Catskills ... only a dusting near the top. We saw quite a few other hikers today.

Howie is looking at you as if to say, "HEY! Where's my hat? It's freaking cold out here!"
