Springbrook Nature Center


Life is ironic. People, places, events that you don't take much notice of have a way of winding their way back to you. Let's take Springbrook Nature Center, for example. I was the leader of a Sierra Club outing there. I spoke at a press conference after it was saved from becoming a golf course. I almost sent my "Save Springbrook" tee shirt to the Goodwill (but something stopped me) and now I work nearby. I go there 2-3 times per week now. When I first read about it and heard about the financial plight that would turn it into a golf course, I had no idea that any personal connection would develop. Life is ironic...the mystery of life's twists and turns are wonderful.
