Message from Caroline Barry

Walden Pond, located in Concord, Massachusetts, is a famous kettle hole formed by retreating glaciers thousands of years ago. It's not just any pond; it's got history! Henry David Thoreau lived there for two years in the 1840s and wrote about his experience in "Walden." The place is now a state park, protected and preserved for all to enjoy. So, if you're ever in the area, take a stroll around the 64.5-acre body of water and soak in the tranquility that inspired one of America's great thinkers.
