We had a great turnout yesterday for our visit tot he Black Spruce Bog in the Waterloo Recreation Area.  Between JAS members and Michigan Botanical Club, 19 of us followed Robert Ayotte into the scrum to see the elusive black spruce.  Robert demonstrated methods for determining soil types and talked abut the identification and natural history of the black spruce in Michigan.
