Around Front Royal in March.


Eastham Park is along the South Fork of the Shenandoah. We've been going there since the trail was first paved in 2011. 


This brick gateway is beside Luray Avenue on the way to the park. I was trying to get a blooming forsythia bush in the picture but it is a bit in the distance. It's behind the gate to the right.

Front Royal has a nice library on Criser Road. This groundhog seems to live between the library and the school. I saw him previously in December.

Groundhogs have other names including woodchuck.

I am thankful that it is officially Spring! Today was not as nice as the last few days because it rained all day, and up in the mountains there was snow. But a few flowers are blooming and more will follow soon.

    The park looks like a great place to explore. The dogs sure enjoy it, good place for them to meet up with old friends. :)

    The groundhog must be happy that spring is stirring.
