Join us at 10 a.m. for a nice visit of Chippokes Plantation Mansion, the Farm and Forestry Museum and then a nice hike along the James River Trail and the Equestrian Trail.  Total trip will be about 5-6 miles, and 3 to 3.5 hours.  Since this will be a hike partially in the open sun in a few areas, it is recommended you bring 1 to 2 liters of water and a hat. (This my third attempt at this hike so I am looking forward to it!)

Afterwards, we’ll hit a local spot for a late lunch.  This state park has an entrance fee of $5
