I was confused after seeing the run-off features installed earlier this year, but seeing them in…Read More action during that last few down-pours really has convinced me. They are a great idea, to mitigate hardscape runoff.
One thing the creek needs is stream bed management -- the large Tulip, Oak and other tall trees along the banks fall with alarming regularity. Adjusting the banks with rip-rap or perhaps introducing beavers into the park would help mitigate the loss of big trees, erosion, and other negative impacts from high-water action. Birds and other wildlife rely on the trees, and for bees, the Tulips are the primary source of nectar during spring honey making time. We need the fresh air and other benefits these tall, stately trees bring.
Sligo Creek Park is, after all, a park, not a wilderness setting. Managing the park means upkeep.

Thanks for the memories of our favorite park, Hershey Park in Hershey, PA. The old wooden roller…Read More coaster was also our very favorite.There was also another favorite, much tamer Love Boat ride that went through a dark tunnel and then went up an incline and you got wet at the end of the ride. Visiting the Hershey Chocolate Factory was also a must on our trip to Hershey. We grew up in nearby York, PA.

Oooh, that Love Boat ride sounds really fun! We didn't see that one. We definitely had quite an…Read More experience there!

Going to Hershey Park had been a yearly event when we took our own three children to Hershey Park.…Read More They loved it there,too. All three of our children are now married and have taken their children to Hershey Park. We have also been to Hershey, PA to the famous Hershey Car Show, where we purchased a 1994 Chrysler LeBaron convertible. I enjoyed reading your article.

Cori, you have no idea how much this helps. I just found out some of the details about the Geo Bowl…Read More and it sounds like a much better situation for my kiddo than I was originally imagining. I'm going to reach out to the team tonight. I imagine that they will be receptive to my worries. I'm hoping that all of the worst case scenarios are in my head and only in my head, which is probably likely. :) Maybe I'll see you at the Geo Bowl!

Yes and yes to everything you say here.
The reality of parenthood is simultaneously far far worse…Read More and far far better than the fantasy could possibly be.
The truth about living with multiple pairs of giant stinky man shoes should be enough to make most of us think twice about filling our houses with male offspring.
And when did I sign up to help a hormonal 15 yr old write an impossible essay on a book he's not yet read, due in 3 days?
It's lucky we love them so much is all I can say.
