Log Cabin Conservation:Couple's donation of 204-acre forest celebrates decades of outdoor enjoyment

摘要

In 1992, with plans of weekend mountain get-aways, John and Pamela McPherson found a little log cabin in the woods to buy in Groton, N.H., a couple of hours north of their then-home in Hopkinton, Mass.They were new to New England, having moved from California for John, a medical research scientist, to work for a biotech company in Boston. They spiffed up the cabin and turned it into a family haven, a base for hiking, hunting and cross-country skiing for the last three decades.
