Are you ready to begin the new year with some good exercise and in the wonder of the Walden woods?
The easiest way to time travel is to spend some time in nature, especially in a place that hasn't changed too much since Henry David Thoreau helped to wear down the paths created by Native Americans. You too can have the same kind of experience that he had-granted there is a parking lot and MORE trees than in day, but just as lovely.
Meet at 12 (or a little before-check out the visitor's center and the cabin), and wear weather appropriate clothing. There will even be snacks and hot cocoa afterwords! I hear that Richard (the returning Thoreau) has made the same kind of "cookie" that Henry and his sisters made for their new year's eve festivities!
There is a list of hikes throughout Massachusetts, if Walden is a bit too far for your horse/car.
