Weather: 60s, thin cloud cover and pretty pleasant again

Comments:
Ran a meandering loop around the property and golf course where we are staying. The run was fine, but again I didn't feel fresh or quick. Tucked into the very corner of the property where no unsuspecting tourist would go were two plaques. One acknowledging the plantation which used to exist on this land and the other acknowledging the cemetery for the patients at the Eastern Shore Hospital Center which also used to exist on this land. The reminder that one person's resort is another person's resting place or that there were enslaved working this land is inescapable in our world, but something to consider as we run for pleasure and fitness.
