Throwback Adventure – Henry Cowdrey Nature Center – Massachusetts

I will have sections of my blog that I will title “Throwback Adventure”, and will plan on posting them every Thursday. These are journeys we have taken before I started the blog, but are well worth sharing. Many of these Throwback Adventures will include our Buster, who was known for his crazy tail, his happy howl, and his zest for life. We miss him dearly…he is forever in our hearts!

In September of 2012 Shadow, Buster and I Adventured to the Henry Cowdrey Nature Center in Lunenburg, Massachusetts.  The Henry Cowdrey Nature Center is a 1.7 mile loop on 300 acres of conservation land.  The Preserve is part of the town of Lunenburg’s conservation land.

We had a warm Adventure to the Henry Cowdrey Nature Center, one of our first Adventures after relocating to  Massachusetts.  The land was filled with signs of nature, had a lovely wooden bridge, and swamp-like areas.  I recall the trails not being clearly marked, and somewhat overgrown in places.  One memory that comes to my mind immediately is a humorous moment when we encountered a log on the trail and could not figure out how to navigate over, or under it.  Shadow appeared to prefer under, while Buster over, adding quite a laugh.  We somehow made it past and carried on our journey.  Although I do not remember a huge amount a details about this Adventure I can tell you it is always a pleasure exploring local conservation land.  It is free, and often times hidden in the nature beauties of our community.  And although we may not be back to the Henry Cowdrey Nature Center we will definitely continue exploring our local conservation land (Throwback Adventures will not always be rated).
