The Bridge in the Woods

Wellness Loud
About this episode

Our story tonight is called The Bridge in the Woods, and it’s a story about a break in the cold weather and the boost that comes from warm sunlight on your face. It’s also about woodpeckers and spring melt flowing fast, the wonders of libraries, and the kindness of people who you might never meet but have cleared a path for you.

We give to a different charity each week, and this week, we are giving to Mountain Humane and Paws for Hunger Pet Pantry. Saving Animals and Changing Lives.
