Needham Town Forest

Last weekend, when we were in Needham, Maggie wanted to go on a hike in the Town Forest and find Martini Junction.  We didn't find it on Sunday, but we did have a nice hike, and everyone but Maggie was happy.

So on Monday, the four of us headed out again to find Martini Junction.

Eventually we found the orange birdhouse trail markers.

And then more and more toys appeared on the ground or in the trees.

And, finally, we found it.

Colonial Williamsburg

We spent the week October 21, thanks to our friends Bing and Sue, seen here at Saude Creek
 Vineyards, which is very close to Colonial Williamsburg.
