I had a lovely walk today along the trails at Goodell Gardens in Edinboro. The first thing I noticed was a White Fringe Tree in bloom. Then I walked around the heritage garden to see the rhododendron and azaleas in full bloom too. As I traversed northward I enjoyed the views back toward the garden and out across the lake. At the far end they have a small picnic grove where I caught a woodchuck sitting on a picnic table. He left when he saw me as I didn't have any picnic food to offer. The next part of my walk gave me some shade as I walked thru the woods along some emerging non edible mushrooms. I scared a deer and as I came out of the woods I found a heart shape in the bark of a tree. On the last leg of the walk a red fox crossed my path and a rather curious looking rabbit said hello at the pavilion. What a glorious day!
