I Found A Thrill on Native Park Hill

Yes, I'm in this picture, but it is not in my jardin. Jake and Pam Ingram, Sally Robison and others are laboring to restore Native Plant Park. They have put in hours of labor to remove air potatoes and reintroduce native plants in a little neighborhood park that was dedicated to natives many, many years ago. After reading the book, Bowling Alone which describes my generation's retreat from the communal sphere, I am touched by folks who aren't secluded in their electronic cottages. Thanks, Jake,Pam, and Sally, you are restoring my faith in the possibility of averting the tragedy of the commons.
