Boyd Pond

We spent a pleasant morning traipsing through the woods surrounding Boyd Pond today. Boyd Pond is a recreation area slash park that is southwest of Aiken and when we first moved here it was available only to employees of the Big Bomb Plant, but now it is open to every Tom, Dick & Harry (I think.) There is a switchback laden trail on the east side of the lake for hiking and biking along with a straighter, shorter nature trail. On the west side is a park with a boat launch, picnic tables, playgrounds and softball fields. We did all 5 caches here, 3 east and two west while walking 4-1/2 miles.

Lunch was outside at Moe’s watching the Whiskey Road traffic zoom by and the afternoon was spent watching Season 7 Disc 2 of West Wing. Only 15 episodes left…
