Ah! Maydale. Catriona, yes, it's easy to get lost in those woods. That's farther west on Briggs Chaney than the ride that could have landed me in the big doll house.

Someday-soon-ex-husband and I took a nice long walk in those woods one day a couple of years ago and ended up not only completely lost, but eventually out on a street that was completely unfamiliar to us. We had to ask the driver of a passing car where we were and which direction we should walk to get back to Maydale. I took pictures of milkweed beetles that day; pretty cool-looking bugs.

Maydale has very nice nature programs for children. I remember mucking around in the creek while a bunch of kids, one of them mine, were pulling up stones and catching all sorts of things to show the naturalist running the program.

And no, I didn't go to Sandy Springs Friends! I went to a public high school in PG County. And that stretch from 29 to where Briggs Chaney deadends (into Old Gunpowder) is exactly the stretch of road that inspired my murderous thoughts!
