Going back to HZ

I am going back to HZ for 2 weeks. I can't wait climbing the hills there. I found some new trails. I will have 3 weekend days. I was reading someone else's blog. We were of the same age. He had a few good reports of his trip to the hills in HZ. We are both lonely souls. It's strange that I don't feel lonely when I am hiking. I enjoy the solitude. My neighbor invited me to join his hiking group this weekend. But I chickened out. It doesn't feel right to go hiking with someone. It would feel nice to run into him on the trail but not hike with him all the way.
