The first track of the album "The Beat Of The Brass" (1968). The playlist of the whole album: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=221F4D80A1B99C1C

Last post of the day, then I'm out of here:

I often find myself retracing my steps along a certain path that I've walked before at that time in the day, just to get the same view of the mountains, woods, or sunset. Luckily, Bennington has entire miles of gentle hiking trails on its 400-acre campus. Sometimes, however, you want to both walk AND get somewhere- but let's face it, a 2-lane county road is a lot less appealing than a hike through the pines, so that's when most of us reach for our cell phones and call the campus shuttle.

Enter the ninja path. 

A group of volunteers in Bennington have begun to build a "ninja path" by linking together public and private trails that helps people avoid roads and commute by their own power. It's a remarkable display of cooperation between landowners, municipal government, volunteers, and nonprofits, that will hopefully soon lead to a new trail between North Bennington and Bennington proper (for reference, Bennington College is pretty much smack-dab in between the two municipalities). 

The Berkshire Eagle has the scoop:
