On my weekly walks, one of the frequent side trips I make is along the Parmenter Nature Trail. I live a block from school and the Nature Trail is easily accessible across the playing fields behind the school.

| The woods are lovely in the morning |
The trail is soft pine needles and slopes down quickly but easily

| old stone wall |
 |
| trail platform |
 |
| split rock by water side |
The stream that runs from Spruce Pond on King St runs down here and then continues on to Mine Brook

| ah, daffodils! |

There was a "story walk" along the trail that I captured with photos in October 2010

Where is the Parmenter Nature Trail?
The trail is found at the edge of the playing fields and runs through the green section of this map along the water and back up to the school building
