Saturday, August 1, 2015: On a relatively cool morning in August, six hikers gathered at Beaman Park Nature Center for a short 3.5 mile walk on the Sedge Trail and Henry Hollow Loop Trail.. It was an easy, pleasant hike with good company. 

The hike ended with a walk in the creek, which cooled us off and slowed us down enough to be able to see crawdads, minnows of all sizes, and little snails cleaning up the rocks.  We even saw a baby snake wriggling quickly away into the brush back on the Sedge Trail.
