Pomfret, CT to Coventry RI Mega-Leg (part 3)! *FINALLY*

 Oops.  Sorry?  Life has just been happening, and I never finished posting our mega-leg from our camping trip in eastern CT, not to mention the NEXT mega-leg from the same trip! So, almost a month later....

The last couple of days hiking and driving this portion of the Greenway, indicated below by the 2 lowest green squares (walking) and the blue between and below them (driving).  This completed a 45 mile segment of trail that started days before in Pomfret, CT and ended in Coventry, RI.  It only represents about a full day of walking/riding for a physically sound party of walkers, but I'm still rehabbing my knee, so am spreading everything waaaayyyyyy out.  It's not the speed, but the journey that matters!!

This day, we set out from Danielson to walk half of 3 mile stretch of trail that there's just no way my knee would let me do all at once.  I'm going to let the pictures speak for themselves fit the most part, since this was about a month ago, and the details may no longer be clear in my mind.  We had some very warm temperatures, which we combated by walking later in the day.

The following day we set out from where we left off the day before to finish that stretch, then drove the on-road portion of the trail to the next walking leg in Moosup.

Starting our last walking portion of the Greenway along the Moosup River.  So. Hot. And sunny.  And right on the middle of the day, but we wanted to make it to Rhode Island today so we could get a start on the one remaining bit of trail in Eastern Connecticut, back out by our campground.

Below, the start of the next walking leg, in Coventry, Rhode Island.  For another day in the (hopefully not too distant) future.

In all, this mega-leg took us a week to complete 7.5 miles of walking and 37.5 miles of driving, bringing our East Coast Greenway totals to 50.75 miles walked, 103.75 miles traversed, and 2897.25 miles to go!  We are definitely not breaking any land speed records, but we are doing it! And we weren't done with this trip yet!
