Yesterday was the 35th annual LBW picnic and walk. This year it was at Fort Washington Park. I decided instead of going down the turnpike I'd take the extra four minutes and go 309. Turned out to be more like 45. The instructions said to take the exit to the right to Fort Washington. The other side went to the turnpike. I went left at the bottom of the ramp and ended up on the east/west turnpike. I went under the street I should be on. I had two choices Ft. Washington and Norristown. I chose Ft. Washington and then it said 476 which is the Blue Route. It's also the North/South turnpike. I take the exit and I see Ikea and all other kinds of landmarks for the blue route. But I'm not on the blue route. I'm on the turnpike. I ended up having to take the Landsdale exit, then take 63 back to 309. When I reached 202 I decided to pull over and reprogram the GPS. I thought 202 would get me there. Not quite. I went thru a lot of neighborhoods but finally arrived.
I was boiling by the time I got there. But seeing everyone, and walking, calmed me down. The route was the same as last year. Not an eventful route, lots of hills, but it's nice.
There was alot of walkers on the trail. Some from out of state. The elure of a pig roast must have some appeal.
It was nice seeing people I generally don't see.
Miles/Steps: about 6
Weather: low 70s, sunny
Wildlife: I killed spotted lantern flies.
