 I hope you'll join me!
I get to play hostess on April 18 and show off my favorite part of Emerald Heights -- the Nature Trail. This is a lovely time of year to see it, as the first signs of spring reveal themselves. Click here to view a short slide show of photos I captured earlier this week. And then warm up your walking shoes and meet me on the trail! Or visit my blog anytime online. I welcome your comments and questions.
