Think(ing) Green Thursday


Think(ing) Green Thursday is hosted by Michelle at Rambling Woods Green.

This is an area near my home called Bennett's Bog. I have enjoyed many hours wandering through the bog. There are a few trails through the woods and around the open space. Lots of birds and other creatures. And if you know where to look, there are some very rare tiny orchids and other wild flowers.

This time of year it isn't really possible to enter. We have had a great deal of rain, and you would probably find yourself sinking below the surface.










There are such places near most of our homes, unless we live in the center of a big city. Even in Metropolis, parks offer us some place to spend a little peaceful time for relaxation where we can commune with Nature and escape from our busy, hectic daily life.
