Spring is in the air, and it’s the perfect time to get out into nature and get moving. Winters Friends of the Library is hosting a free online talk about great local hiking trails for families at 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 17, on Zoom.
Sarah Shin Madsen will share photos and talk about a few local spots that she has come to love. These hikes are all within a 30-minute drive of Winters and good for all ages and abilities. She will also go over some basic trail safety and basic equipment and supplies to keep on hand. There will be time for questions after her presentation.
Julia Aue’s photography is on display at Logos Used Books through April 2. The bookstore, at 513 Second St., is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesdays through Sundays.
Inspired by travel, a love of nature and human interactions, Julia Aue hopes to capture everyday beauty and emotion in her photographs. Cross-country road trips, living and traveling in Europe and visits to other parts of the world have kindled her interest in people and the way they live as well as a deep gratitude for the calm that comes through being in nature. Raising four children has helped to keep the wonder and joy of new discoveries alive and well.
