  In the space $\mathcal{H}^2$ of hyperbolic surfaces decorated with a base
unit vector, the topology induced by the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence coincides
with the Chabauty topology on the space of discrete torsion-free subgroups of
$\text{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. Using paths constructed from changing the
Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates and shrinking curves to cusps, we show
path-connectivity of $\mathcal{H}^2$ and some of its subspaces.
