SUMMARY: Great Time! My thanks to Paul for his organization and talking to me on the phone, even though we never connected!
AND my thanks to the two good looking gentlemen I met in the Princeton Turning Basin Park on Alexander Road who encouraged me to tag along.
Afraid my bum knee would not hold up, but anxious to walk the Trenton piece of the trail, I drove down to Carnegie Rd (south of Mrs. G's), parked, and hobbled along south, departing at 8am. At…

It was nice meeting you and Eileen. You two are amazing walkers. I finished at 8:00pm which was almost 2 hours less than last year yet you guys were even earlier. I'm glad I met Divina and we had each other to keep our spirits up because those last 10 miles were a killer. Hope to see you on the next walk.

I know about those blisters! Smear Vaseline, Neutrogena foot cream or Glide on your feet before the next walk. That is what I will be doing! Hopefully, that will help. After the last long walk, I am looking into a more efficient way of doing the long distance walking. I am investigating the Chi walking or running system. I think that may benefit all of us. See you in the next loooooong walk.

Nice meeting you and Eilleen! You both are great walkers and companies for TR2NB40. Thank you both for your help in the little detour at the canal. I was almost lost! We did a great time but the best thing was helping someone in trouble to finish! You guys are the best!

The Sounds of a Long Walk
Just a few days ago, I noticed, maybe for the first time, the sounds of the Great Canal Walk. For most of the 40 miles and 15 hours that day there was an absence of sound in this body of water as still as glass on that calm day....
