Roses right around the corner

Spring has sprung and not only are the days destined to be lushly longer with lingering sun filled hours, roses will be blooming at their spring peak in a few short weeks.

A cost-free way to enhance your sense of well-being here in Woodland is to literally smell the roses. Talk a walk down First Street and round the corner at Oak Avenue to indulge in the heady fragrance of rose blossoms.

Or on your way in or out of our very own Carnegie Woodland Public Library, linger in the Rose Gardens. Allow yourself to experience the natural perfume of the roses while relaxing on one of the benches.

Breathe deeply, relax for a few minutes out in the natural light, and notice how you can let that niggling worry in the back of your mind fade from attention.....
