Directions: Follow sign at trailhead towards Chestnut Cove Overlook. Hike to Chestnut Cove Overlook (take short side trail off of MST to reach parking area). Return the same way.

Friday evening hike after picking up veggies at our tailgate market. Had to make it short. Both of us are feeling physically tired, and found this short hike tiring as well. I'm thinking the trail maintenance we did last weekend wiped us out. It was a nice hike though, on well maintained trail.

I'm back in PT for my ankle. The good news is that my ankle x-rays look great still. The bad news is that I have some new soreness for the past few weeks. The solution might be to hike with an ankle brace.
