Review Visit: September 27th, 2016…read more I have been to Springfield, IL quite a few times, so it came to me as a surprise that there was a Memorial Garden/Nature Center dedicated to Abraham Lincoln. So, on a beautiful fall day, I decided to make a trip there and see what it was about. Talk about picking a perfect day to walk a perfect place. Parked my car, grabbed my outdoorsy hat and went walking. You could say that this place is split in two, with a section around the Nature Center and a section all on its own. There were only a few people on the trail and they were friendly. It was an enjoyable walk around the Nature Center section. Even saw two fawn play around while their mother fed. If you like to walk some easy trails while enjoying nature, this place needs to be on your list.

I don't normally do my own plant replacement but since it's 2025 and the going hourly to hire it…read moreout is $300+ an hour plus the plants, I was motivated to replace three bad plants in front of our home myself. Had a great experience with Pleasant primarily due to Denny being so incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Ask me about health and nutrition? Got it, good to go. Ask me about plants? As close to a zero as you can get. So I asked Denny every newbie question there is. He was great, explaining the differences between the options I was most drawn to, and how best to install the new plants. Got the plants I wanted, did it myself, saved myself a GOOD $1000 for doing so thanks to the availability of what I wanted at Pleasant and Denny's help.
