<h2>Literature on the Trail</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>A six-week reading circle designed for senior hikers — pairing classic chapters with walkable excursions. Every session has a reading, a route, and a question meant to be answered under open sky.</p>

<h2>Hiking for Seniors</h2>

<p>Roles, schedules, and trail examples from three decades of leading groups — the practical skeleton of a program that keeps everyone moving at their own pace.</p>

|
|
<p style="font-size:.95rem;">When I'm not on a trail or a page, I keep a small herb garden (the rosemary outlives every volunteer), hum Mozart's Sonatas while I file, and over-book my own calendar on principle. This site is my second brain, and these pages are the chapters I actually tell people about.</p>
