I wanted to try the function of adding a page. If you are interested in sharing the state where you live, please add it to this page. Of course, a picture is worth a thousand words.

It is truly amazing how many states are represented by class members. Hello to all you librarians.

Sadly, the historic wetland acreage is dwindling.

I'm also in Toledo (I work with Janice at Mulford) - her link to Middle Bass Island reminded me of the summers I spent at Stone Lab (this picture's better - you can see Cooke Castle; I can't believe that the bat house is still marked...thought it had been torn down...) as an undergrad on South Bass. My favorite island for "safari" was North Bass, which was only accessible by special permission. (The best part of North Bass was the beach along the pointy southeast tail.)
