Once again, I decided to move this weekend's long walk to Sunday, as that was the more convenient day to go on a little adventure out of town. I went back to Westchester, this time to try out the South County Trailway. The parking lot was easy to find, and the trail was right there. Great! The part of the Trailway I walked on has its redeeming qualities. For starters, it's paved and pretty much totally flat. And no motorized vehicles. In fact, I don't think there were any non-motorized vehicles, either. But there are some downsides. It's pretty darn ugly. Or, at the very least, not pretty. Most of it goes right alongside the Saw Mill River Parkway, and then, a mile or so in, the Akzo Nobel plant! According to my research, Akzo Nobel makes surfactants, whatever surfactants are, and they also make one heck of an eyesore of a building. Blech. This would have been a smart walk to take with a friend. Good conversation makes for a handy distraction from a hybrid limited-access highway.
