Hiking at the Sir Edwards Regional Preserve in Newark with Carolyn.

The weather was beautiful and Carolyn was visiting on this Monday, the first Monday as a free man from the corporate world! But ironically, like the museums we had tried to visit that morning, everything seemed to be closed...
So we ended up doing a nice leisurely hike along the trailes of the Sir Edwards Regional Preserve in Newark.
How convenient--a "do-it-yourself" walking tour of the Tidelands Trail.
There is interesting flora out here, but unfortunately I do not know the names of any of it.
Carolyn reading about something about the fauna in the preserve. Maybe I should have too so that I could at least name some of them!

The visitor center--like seemingly everything else that day--was closed on Mondays, too. Stil
