Perhaps we should all take this as a wake up call, as this is just a taste of what a gypsy moth invasion has brought to our area twice in the last 15 years. Thankfully, the gypsy moth population has...

So which is worse for you, fast food ice machines, or swimming in a public pool. hmmm

Bring it on, already.

Here's to hoping that the miscreants continue to stay to the southern end of our common little street.

Good god, the infirm sure get skeptical with age. :D

The actual path is more squared off with some cutbacks, but you have the basic plan displayed here on this map.

We took a Mother's Day hike out to the Springs starting from the second parking lot (by storage units) using the new Upper Trail to go out and back. It's a nice hike and rather different than the...

I agree, he's been attempted to be categorized as a domestic violence type himself, by his prior record. He served his time and quite possibly responded to the Berry plea because of his prior life...

This is similar to what I noticed last year, and it had me alarmed then also. Hopefully it is some other species, but there is a fair amount of frass and leaf damage here, from whatever it is.

I hope that's the case. It was kind of high in the tree, so I could not get a great look.

I've noticed also and just found what I believe to be a gypsy moth on one of my trees, not a good sign.

right to freedom of speech, maybe? Some people just have to go and take things ultra-literally just for the sake of an argument, but then I guess that's what makes the worldwide web go around.

What I've primarily noticed about this spring has been how slow vegetation has been to respond to the change of seasons this year, hence my term "slow spring." I can gauge that pretty well by the...

I don't think there is too much to worry about treasure hunting down there. There have been a few occasions several years back that noticed minor dig spots around the clearing area, and have...

That structure you found is still accessible. It is part of the Loop Trail that Willis is referring to. That's an interesting thought about it being the last spring but it is completely dry there,...

It's looking like the Cleveland Police could get a few major black eyes with regard to this. Several reports of suspicious activity at the residence over a period of years, resulting in police...

Interesting interview with the women's rescuer, Charles Ramsey, is going viral. Amazing that he lived next door for a year, socialized occasionally with the brothers, and had no idea what was going...

Whichever route you take, this is the end result.

"They" don't know it exists, other than a random bulldozer run back in Feb.

I will tell you though, for the time being at least, it exists now. :)

I am quite pleased to announce that a new trail has recently been opened up at the Shannondale Springs WMA (north) that serves as an upper access to the bathhouse from the approximate spot of the old...

Anyone recognize this cat? I don't think it's yours Jennifer because we are too far away from Moonshine. We have seen this cat several times recently in the woods between Johnnycake and Skyline.

Last year we had a quantity of 80 plus degree days in March, let alone April. I remember going to Home Depot last Spring and asking about fans because I would not turn the AC on in March so I needed...

I'd really like to see them pay a visit to Deerfoot above Johnnycake. A very steep unpaved road that gets the occasional gravel treatment. It never seems to fail that a large rain comes within a week...

Regardless of any potential socio/political agenda gains, it has seemed to be an unusually mild spring. Or am I the only one to notice?
