I went yesterday and had a nice 6.6 mile walk (I included the North loop) through the beautiful forest. It IS very fairytale-esque, either that or it was designed by Olmsted. It feels wild until you come to a well crafted break in a stone wall and it makes you wonder if it had always been there. I often felt like I'd exit the woods onto Central Park West or come across a gift shop...but obviously never did. We need more people like Mr. Zofnass and his neighbors who spend their own money to create spaces like this for all to share.<br /><br />Here's a NY Times article on the creation of the preserve.<br /><br />http://www.nytimes.com/2004/03/21/nyregion/creating-a-preserve-a-piece-at-a-time.html<br />jk666https://www.blogger.com/profile/12832170810051316649noreply@blogger.com
