FRELINGHUYSEN ARBORETUM AND ACORN HALL

It was a great trip to the arboretum. Special thanks to John for sharing his time and gave us a free and very informative tour. John works for the arboretum; and his knowledge of the place and the plants are invaluable. Our next stop was Washington Crossing. It was a very educational trip to a historical place. The tour was very interesting. Overall, it was a pleasant trip; and the pace was leisurely. A very nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

This is a nice Autumn hike/walk through the Frelinghuysen Arboretum in Morristown; plus a tour to nearby Acorn Hall. For further information about Acorn Hall please consult their website http://www.acornhall.org/visit-us.html.
