A trail through Meadowbrook
01/06/2010 by Adriana
BY AL HAYEK
There are strawberry fields on the east slope of the hill in the northern portion of Meadowbrook. I can imagine the nature park with a trail going by the hill: school children seeing real strawberries growing wild on the vine.
Nearby is a small marsh with reeds and the songs of red-winged blackbirds. Our trail should go by here also. Everyone should have the thrill of listening to a red-winged blackbird singing in its native marsh.
