It is really spring when the daffodils bloom.  These were planted on the hill between buildings 5 and 6 by a resident.

Volunteer built and maintained garden at the end of the carport at Building #3. Flowers include annuals such as marigolds and petunias and perennials including: daylilies, iris and Shasta Daisies.

Glaciers and New England Farmers

Glacial erratics are large boulders carried by the glaciers which during the last ice age covered most of New England.  When the glaciers melted, these stones which may have come from as far away as the White Mountains were left behind.  These rocks are found at the far end of the parking lot at building #3. We don't know for sure that these were not moved by the builders.  They may have been in what is now the parking lot.  The farmer would have just plowed around them. Even larger erratics can be found in the woods of  Roby Park.

Other evidence of past glacial activity are the stone walls found in the woods and along Oak Hill Lane. The stones are usually rounded with one flat side showing they were pushed over the ground by the glacier. As New England farmers cleared and plowed their fields, they created these walls of stones between the fields.  The walls are a sure sign of  historical agricultural use of the area .

This rock in Roby Park shows almost parallel scratches. The scratches may have been made by a glacier dragging several smaller rocks  across the surface of this one.

For more pictures of Roby Park including the wooded cross country ski and hiking trail see Neighbors.
