For all of you nature lovers out there you must visit the beautiful Indian Rock Nature Preserve in Bristol, CT.  Indian Rock is Environmental Learning Center of Connecticut's environmental learning facility made up of 280 acres that includes a lake, stream and miles of trails.  Many school programs are taught at this facility and is also where the Indian Summer Camp is held.  The facility is open for scheduled group and programs only and does not have public open hours. The preserve used to be a spot for the Fuller Barnes family to spend their vacations.  I had the pleasure of speaking with one of the family members who shared some wonderful memories with me that she had from when she was a young girl.  I can tell you she had a beautiful childhood.  For example, she remembered ice skating on the lake with friends and then returning to the house by the lake to warm up and have hot chocolate.
