August 25, 2019 hike - Mendon Ponds Park -Monroe NY County Parks - 3.5 miles

Mendon Ponds was on my little list of places to hit when we need a close by walk.  Monroe county's park site has handy PDF files that can be double side printed onto single sheets of paper and that is all we had as headed out for the morning's adventure.  We drove the perimeter of the park to find the best trail head for the hike we basically randomly selected from our cheat sheet.

The trail was almost entirely comprised of mowed paths through meadows.  There were a lot of paths going every which way but we tried to just follow the red blazed trail.  There were a few spots where we got off track and the hike got a little longer than we anticipated and the weather a little warmer.  Still, it was a really good spontaneous walk on a beautiful day.
