Maplewood Nature Center

Here is part of the prairie section at the Maplewood Nature Center.  The fuzzy topped plants are Canada goldenrod.
Here is that awesome cotton wood tree.  I think it would take 4 or 5 people touching hands to surround this big old tree.
The bark is shaggy and rugged.
There is a hole in the center of one of the three trunks - a perfect spot for a critter to reside.   Would you dare put your hand in there?

Tom Lake

I listened to an audio version of Tom Lake by Ann Patchett. As a special treat the book was read by Meryl Streep who is a very good reader....
