This is a podcast from the recently renovated riverfront of Wilmington Delaware. There's plenty of great history in it about the shipbuilding industry, military ships, and the underground railroad. It is over 30 minutes long, so take your time in digesting it. I probably won't be able to post another podcast for a few weeks, so enjoy this one.

Today's podcast comes from Historic New Castle, Delaware. Most people just drive right through Delaware on Interstate 95, but if you get off and take route 9 south, you'll reach a quaint little town with a rich history. Every year, On the third Saturday in May, the town of New Castle holds an event called "A Day In Old New Castle" where you can take tours of the historic buildings, houses and gardens, and learn about life in colonial times. For more information, visit http://www.dayinoldnewcastle.org

Continuing with last week's theme of trees, welcome to the Tyler Arboretum in Pennsylvania. Before I visited the arboretum, I had no idea how beautiful it would be. There are such majestic trees, for example the Cedar of Lebanon is just humongous and amazing to look at. So as you listen to this podcast, I encourage you to think about life from the perspective of a tree, as you take a longer term view of the cycles of life on our planet.
