One little sign of hope here in "The People's Republic of Clintonville" north of Ohio State U., in Columbus, OH.

More and more people are planting native stuff and trying to make ecological restoration as
part of their gardening and for the past few weeks and tonight sitting outside I am hearing tons
of tree frogs making their little trilling sounds. Not much but if you hear it it is music to my ears.

A big yellow lab and a glass of Gewurztraminer wine helps. Good night moon. Good night D.U.
