  • Go Left, Young Man! Racetracks Abound Just Over the Border, So Pack a Lunch and Get Out
    Take a Hike! Bring leaf peeping to a whole nother level RI offers a variety of hiking trails, each with its own style, terrain and level of difficulty. Some trails are ideal for fishing, while others are popular for bird watching or dog walking. Some showcase the area’s wildflowers, while others are more accessible to children. The weather has to be pretty severe to keep me out of the woods on my day off, so you can find me wandering around many of these trails in the rain, shine or snow, but the cool air and the colorful landscape of fall make it my favorite time to be outside. Hiking gear can be fun to shop for, but it can also be expensive. You don’t need much. Basic supplies, appropriate clothing and decent footwear will do. I recently emptied out my traditional hiking backpack and moved all of my gear into a sling-style bag. The single strap makes it easier to slide on and off at rest stops. The prolonged weight on one shoulder would likely be a hindrance on a longer excursion, but for an afternoon jaunt, the sling has been ideal. I always carry a long-sleeved t-shirt in my bag in case the temperature unexpectedly drops. I also bring water, food, a small first-aid kit, sunscreen and various fire starters. A handkerchief is useful to place items on when the ground is wet, and I never go anywhere without a pocketknife. Appropriate footwear is key while hiking. Running shoes or heavy-duty sneakers have proven to be ideal for most of the marked trails in the area, which are pretty well groomed.
