TN9 Hop 5<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

82 miles via I-95, I-287, the Sprain Brook Parkway, the Taconic State Parkway, US 9 and NY 308. Miles since the end of Hop 4: 82. Cumulative route miles: 1,574. Total TN9 miles: 1,607.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a short hop in good weather. It was scenic, following the Hudson River north. But the traffic was very heavy with a full stop for an accident near Poughkeepsie. Not a fun short trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My host for two nights in Greenwich was an old friend, Marc. He was a congenial host who gave me a brief tour of the Greenwich\/Cos Cob area. We had lunch at Fairfield Pizza<\/a> in Greenwich where I had arguably the best slice of pizza that I have ever had. It had chicken and tomatoes and some kind of creamy topping. Delicious. Marc also treated me to a fine Italian dinner (roasted artichoke hearts and calamari for appetizers, lasagna for entree) at Villa Italia<\/a> in Stamford. Excellent! I ate well on this hop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weather was cloudy and even a bit cool (haven’t said that<\/em> in months) but I got some decent photos of the harbor in Greenwich. And the beard continues to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
