 The news that the Department of Natural Resources has acquired the railroad tracks along Brown’s Creek near Stillwater for a new segment of bike trail is great. The next logical thing to do would be to incorporate preservation of a historic stone bridge along the new route.  St. Croix River Awareness Week is almost here! The St. Croix River Association and its partners are organizing a week of events to enjoy and help protect the river, featuring clean-up canoe trips, family-friendly seminars, film showings, and lots more.  I recently update a Google Map of the Kinnickinnic River’s public access points as a project to support the river’s conservation group organize a river clean-up event.  St. Croix River Awareness Week has been scheduled for July 17-25. How can we celebrate the river and help protect it for future generations?  On a beautiful sunny spring day, we hear climate change author and activist Bill McKibben speak at church, and Brian, Lola and I head to Wisconsin for hiking, adventure and swimming. |
