Good point! So we're the midst of a rather unseasonable cold snap. Are we going to have a pity party? Heck no! Let's make some plans and move around, indoors or out! This week's cover photo, taken by David Dech, is of Lake Marguerite Wildlife Refuge in Washington Township, near the Oxford border. Hiking in Warren County is always a good bet; click here to learn from our friends at Skylands Visitor about a few more natural resource areas you may want to explore. Read on to find out about educational workshops, a craft fair, Yiddish comedy, fall foraging, "spirit communication", plenty of live music - including a Country Night with line dancing - and more! Don't miss the Plan Ahead link to Thanksgiving Dinner and Dessert options! Happy Wanderings!
