Then we will walk in the woods and "botanize" as usual using the 1 mile trail. See [https://www.reflectionpark.org/](https://www.reflectionpark.org/) for more information about Reflection Park. \>\>Warning: No bathroom available on site yet \(the closest is at a nearby gas station\) \>\> Carpooling encouraged\. \>\> Usual protection for Maryland outings: You know the drill\.

Now that the weather is warming up, I hope to schedule approximately one cemetery walk per month as is customary. If any interest is shown for having a walk in March, I'm in!
