My family has picnicked at this park all my life. Now my own family comes to this park when we visit Vt. This is the place where my husband and I have been soul mates before we even knew each other. It is the park where we will have our ashes brought to. There does seem to be a change there I am sure it is the restless youth of today who have no respect for nature. We do bring a bag with us to carry out useless trash. Black flies during Memorial weekend are not fun and there are plenty at this park..

Visiting there often, I found that shaggy mane mushrooms came up there in the fall. Keeping a regular eye on it (I lived only 20 minutes away) I showed up one morning to find them all broken off... A tad disconcerted that some child was going around kicking them I continued stopping in early in the morning. Pulling up one day, I catch the culprit in the act!! A nice plump porcupine! Scolding him from my car I leave him to his feast. Mushroom-less but content.
