My wife and I stopped using pesticides and herbicides in our yard shortly after we moved in. Today we found a tree frog. Our mini ecosystem seems healthy.

Springtime in DC. The city comes alive with all sorts of fun things to do. Pottery on P Street is an annual event where DC area potters show and sell, sponsored by the DuPont Circle BID. Hope to see you there.

Some lovely Virginia Bluebells, Mertensia virginica. My wife is a native plant evangelist (pretty much the only evangelist I will tolerate) and has transformed our yard into a thriving mini ecosystem.

Thank you Senator Booker for taking a stand.
