All Info Pertaining to The Highlands

All Info Pertaining to The Highlands
Jean and I moved to The Highlands in the Fall of 2007 from our home on Cousins Island in Yarmouth where we had lived for 30 wonderful years. I often think that I'd like to share a thought or an experience about our life here at The Highlands with other folks . . . and by this "blog" I am going to do so. One other thought. The Highlands is not in any way responsible for this website. This is wholly the personal responsibility of Stan Sylvester. Jean Sylvester has her own site at http://www.catcarewithlove.blogspot.com/ mostly devoted to her writings, her poetry and her experience as a professional cat care person in Yarmouth. SPECIAL NOTE TO VISITORS: In addition to scrolling down to view contents of my blog, when you reach the bottom you can click on "older posts" to review all the topics I've posted.

Walking at The Highlands



Louise Cornman, left above, moved to The Highlands from Sunnybrook Village in Brunswick because of the limited opportunities to walk at Sunnybrook. Here are Louise and Jeannette Wootton on a late March stroll.
  
Pat Knoll and her daughter, Heidi, are walking outside the Maine Lodge on a sunny March day.



Carole Todd out for a stroll. Those colorful gloves look great, Carole!


The champion walker of all is John Tyler who walks over to Brunswick and back almost every day

We are so fortunate to have the Highlands Trail System, too!
 

Jeanne Whitten and I hiked on the Ravine Trail, marked in red on the map below. Here is Jeanne, holding my walking stick, waiting for me to get started.


It is so good that we have this series of walking trails through the woods near the Estates portion of The Highlands community. If you decide to explore these trails, be sure to take a companion and a cell phone with you.




And nearby we have access to the Cathance River Nature Preserve with fine trails for more adventuresome walkers


Here is a group of Highlands folks on a hike around the Heath Trail in the Cathance River Nature Preserve on August 30, 2010
