430.     Sheepishly Adding More Boxes to CT
Just a couple of new places to plant boxes that we found during National Trails Day walks in CT on June 4th, 2011.

These days it always seems to amaze us if we find out about a new place to walk in CT that doesn't have at least one or two boxes already in it! Well, on National Trails Day 2011, we actually went on walks to two such places, both somehow related to sheep, so that's why we are now saying that we are sheepishly adding more boxes to CT!

For the first box, find the northern entrance into a sheep-related preserve (better to use the Ridge than the Hollow), and follow the "white fleece" to a tree that was described to us during our loop walk as the "Jimmy Durante Tree". Continuing on the trail twelve steps should earn you your sheepskin behind the tree on your left.

For the second box, find a new preserve tucked away on a dead end road behind an outpatient clinic, locate the old farmhouse foundation and head for the northwest corner of the outer wall which is adjacent to a 3 trunked stump. Check out the inside edge of that corner. Plenty of room to explore further and follow trails to visit the old mill dam and nice little waterfalls, if you so desire!
