After the Storm . . .
In Honor of a Lady
When Rockwood Park’s “Lady Tree” (aka Daphne) was destroyed last year by the high winds of a nasty storm, a new tree was planted in her honor. We’re glad to report that Daphne Jr. is thriving.
And we note, she now has her own plaque. . .
. . . though we await information from the parks service as to who, exactly, the honorable Florence Theresa Menninger Mooney was. Stay tuned.

They’re B-a-a-a-a-ck
Yes, as predicted, they’re back in great numbers: the dreaded — and very hungry — lanternflies. They’re in the park, on the roads, on the terrace, and on Kendal’s windows. Remember: if you can reach ‘em, step on ‘em — do it with vigor! Ick!
