Roxbury Heritage State Park

I had a wonderful visit!!! Zak one of the proud guide caretaker's of this lovely spot come out to greet me, chat, pointed out some of the features of the area and answered my questions. We shared the view off to the city skyline full of distant towering buildings viewed through an opening in the folliage of the beautiful trees on the site along with a American flag that unfurled in the gentle breeze as if cued. Although the Dillaway-Thomas House was still closed however the welcome desk at the park had re-opened two days before. I chose to stay outside. The grounds, gardens and trees were beautiful. The real fun part was something as simple as keeping track of a rabbit who seemed to pop-up in various places. Truly, during my visit in the park, I never saw more than one rabbit at a same time. It was fun to watch as the rabbit appeared and disappeared and re-appeared. Still not sure if there was one energetic rabbit, a family of rabbits that sent out one scout at a time or a carefully choreographed dance of the rabbits in the cinemagraphic style of a famous golf course gopher. I don't know! Perhaps on your visit you you too will get to enjoy the antics of a local rabbit or two or three or more.
