I’m no longer focusing on the nightmare we went through in 2013 (you can see those posts if you want to search for more pictures) because so many lost more, so here’s a shot of what I now view outside my side windows – can you see my nearest neighbor without binoculars?  Now a DuPage County Wetlands Prairie – with an official sign!  This year prairie grasses will appear because they take longer to germinate than the flowers.  I think something like 55 different seeds were planted – the little house on the prairie, 21st century style 🙂
