A Winter Walk at the Lewis A. Swyer Preserve in Stuyvesant, New York

We had a mild winter’s day, and wanted to give our year and a half old son some fresh air.  So, we decided to take him for a walk along the boardwalk at the Lewis A. Swyer Preserve.  We had a beautiful winter walk that heightened the senses and energized the whole family.  Even on a winter’s day, it was a wonderful way to spend some family time together and be closer to the nature that we love so very much.

Leaves and Trees at the Stewart Preserve

I love walking in the woods in the fall.  There’s something about the smell of leaves in crisp, cool air that revitalizes my senses.  We visited the Stewart Preserve on a nice fall day.  Though the sun was mostly hidden behind clouds, when it did decide to peek out, the forest glowed. We will definitely be returning to this beautiful place in the early spring to see what else it has to offer.
