The Routes
 We'll start in Centreville this week, and head west over to the Menzel Nature Preserve. The shorter route will then loop back east, while the longer route will continue further up and around Lime Lake. The terrain is mostly rolling farmland. The routes have been revised to eliminate the overly adventurous sections that we "explored" back in June, and now start from Centreville. 

Car Pooling Please consider!
