I had a really good time and enjoyed our time at the nature center (hot chocolate & conversation)! The snowman was a big plus too.! THANKS TONY!

Thanks to all who attended last night's event. The cold weather and light snow didn't slow us down at all, and we had a very nice hike. We capped off the evening with hot chocolate and excellent conversation in the nature center. (Next time I'll build a fire in the fireplace :-)

  We're meeting at the nature center which is on Old Hickory Blvd. If you're at the other lot just take a right out of the lot, right at the next road (Eaton's Creek), right on OHB and then a right into the nature center lot.
