I wanted to take a nice walk to start the new year, and a friend suggested the Capital Trail. I had never heard of it (Virginia is not good at organized self-promotion...), but it is amazing! A new, totally paved trail that runs from Virginia's first capital, Jamestown, past it's second, Williamsburg, all the way to Richmond, the current capitol. We walked the first two-ish miles, and looped around for a four and a half mile trip. The girls rode their bikes. We all had a wonderful time! Everyone we met on the trail was very friendly, wished us happy new year, and it was a very positive experience. A few day later B rode his bike most of the 50 miles to Richmond. That is definitely something I want to do too.
The trail goes past open fields with horses, then into the woods.
It was great getting into some open rural country again.
