Saturday 5-15-10: A fabulous day of 73 degrees and lots of sun. Sheeba and I started at Shea Rink and walked the Skyline Trail west to the Trailside Museum. A few Daddy Long-legs type insects, bumblebees, butterflies and a chipmunk sighting. Surprisingly hot, and I finished my entire 2L of water! At end, an enjoyable tour of The Mass. Audubon's natural history museum, including a playful female otter, turkey vultures and a snowy owl.

Summits: 6 hills, including Great Blue (635 feet)
Route: Skyline Trail from Shea Rink in Quincy, southern Skyline Trail from Reservation HQ to Eliot Tower, and Red Dot Trail to Trailside Museum on Route 138
