The Saco Heath (October 2017)

This weekend’s adventure took me to the Saco Heath in Maine. A heath is pretty much just a bog.  A good ol’ flat wetland with lots of grass and trees. The boardwalk took you right through the middle of the heath, giving a view of the wide open areas, the bushy areas, and the forest…
