Robert V. Riddell State Park — Attraction in Town of Milford

We were being followed around the park by a weird guy.

We pull into the parking lot, ready to go on a hike. Then we see this guy in a red Toyota Prius pull in. So we sit in the car for a second so then the guy can walk ahead of us, but he decides that he’s going to sit in his car for five mins. So we decide we’re going to start walking. We head down the first straight away and then the guy gets out of his car and starts walking. We notice this right away because his car door squeaked so loudly.

I walked in this park a lot last year; this was my first time there in 2021. They have not kept up the trails as well as they have in the past, and there were a few spots where I had to tiptoe through super shallow water. There are also some spots that go through high weeds, they are up to an adult chest, that could harbor ticks.
