For anyone who has spent time working to ensure that their garden or yard or home landscaping looked not only presentable but beautfiul, certain questions routinely pop up: When should I plant seeds for my flower bed, and is that the best time to plant seeds for my vegetable garden, too? How do I remove that tree stump from my backyard without removing my leg in the process? What’s the deal with those damned weeds growing back in the same place year after year, and how do I make them stop? Answers to these and other outdoor questions will finally come via this weekend’s Two State Forestry Conference & Expo.

It’s the kind of idea that’s at once radical and obvious. Radical because we expect books about sprawl to be academic and dry and concerned with public policy and statistics about pollution, commutes, lost farmland, and population density. |

Listening to Lisa Lockheart describe what’s new at this year’s Celtic Highland Games of the Quad Cities is a little overwhelming. Keep in mind: We’re just talking about additions to the event (now in its seventh year), not the things that are staying the same. |
