We had our final Leadership Grand Traverse day session today...it was Natural Resources Day!
It was a beautiful day to explore Northern Michigan and all the wonderful natural resources it has to offer..the watershed, the farms, land conservation, rivers, hiking trails, etc!
One of the farms we visited that will be preserved as farm land for years to come thanks to the Land Conservancy...
The view of East Bay from the shores of Acme...with 1 more mile that will be added to protected shoreline!
Kids Creek redevelopment...once was eroded due to the buffalo farm that owned the land! Now being protected and the buffalo are being controlled with a fence...
A crazy looking fungus growth at Kids Creek...
The fungus looks like the rings of a tree stump...
The Boardman River Nature Trail, Dam and Lake...
A beautiful river that winds through town and by our house: people kayak, canoe and fish on it..."I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own." Andy Warhol
"We have fallen heir to one of the most glorious heritage a people ever received and each one must do his part if we wish to show that the nation is worthy of its good fortune."
~ Teddy Roosevelt
