Lichen

(Wish I had a photo handy in my archives.) I have previously shared that the partnering of environmental science and geocaching occurs frequently with me -- personally for my own education, and as a family when I have my children along. Heck, sometimes the two mix when we have group activities with our homeschool groups. Ledges State Park now has a Lichen Trail for us to walk. This time of year lets the bright contrasting color of some of the lichens shine. I am very excited to take this trail and learn more about lichens. If you click here, you can find information and directions under the Trails heading (in bold). Once the ice goes away (will it ever?), I'm looking forward to taking my time among the rocks and tree trunks.
