Sunday 5-9-10: This meander through the Trustees of Reservations property in Hingham was a delight. Notable sights included colorful blooming azaleas, sensual lady slippers, an American holly grove, a lily-of-the-valley field, a quarter-mile of head-high rhododendrons, and some fiddleheads from newly emerging ferns. Several glacial erratics dot the landscape, including a grouping called Ode’s Den.Our lunch spot on Turkey Hill gave us spectacular vistas of Boston's skyline and Nantasket Beach.
At the Weir River Farm, we saw a bright-red barn, 4 horses, a camel-colored llama, about 7 black-and-white cows laying in the shade, and a large sooty gray pig!
Thanks to AMC leader Beth Mosais.
