    Cranky and Tumbles are BACK!  It’s been a hot minute (3 weeks specifically) since Team Tumbles have graced the podcasting world with their presence, however there are updates and a fun local hike to catch you up on!  This episode is dedicated to our silent listeners. We appreciate YOU. ❤️

    Another Saturday, another Catskill winter peak done.  Winter is coming to a close.  Will Tumbles and Cranky crank out their last one in time?!  Perhaps some philosophical postulating will help!
