    Went on the Tree Walk today with Mike Wilcox and some of the Cornwall Park Trust arborists. I walk through the park most days, but can I ever tell anyone anything about the place? Big fat NO - until this morning. I have loved this place for 25 years - but I never learned so many physical and historical facts about why it is in fact so special til today. We got lucky with the weather too! I will definitely be going on the other walks in the 2011 Autumn series. Thank you so much for organising this.
