How To Get To Location: To get to my chosen location starting from the Aiken center, you will walk down Main Street towards the waterfront until you find yourself across from Union Station where Main Street Intersects with Battery Street. Cross Battery Street onto Lake Street and follow until you see the Creemees Ice Cream by the waterfront. To the right you should see a paved walking/bike path lined with trees on either side. Continue on the walking/bike path for approximately 700 ft. To your left should be a green patch of grass with a statue at the end of it: That area is my phenology site.
Why I Chose the Location: I chose that specific location as my phenology site because I think it had a good mixture of scenery. From my spot you can see the lake and the mountains as well as the trees along the pathways. I think the mixture of scenery was important to me when choosing my phenology site because then I can see how different landscapes change in contrast to one another.
Vegetation Description: As for immediate vegetation, there are a few bushes on the side closer to the lake and then trees on the right side (along the path way). The trees were beginning to change color slightly in some of the leaves but the bushes stayed a purply-green color.
