Leaf-out on 12th St., one of the first I've seen. I just learned that term yesterday from Kyle of Urban Arborists who came to help me figure out if our trees need pruning. Yes, he said that is the scientific term, but I have trouble believing it. This tree is certainly an early riser, so many others still have their leaves tucked in soundly.
We have new roomates of a very old lineage: Triops, which may be one of the oldest living animal species on earth. You can't see them in the picture, they are just jumping bits of punctuation for now. Thanks, dad, and don't worry, we are being gracious and served them their first helping of fish-scented spirulina pellets this morning.

You made me Google.
Freaky!!! Are those the things that were advertized on the flyleaves(grand name) of comic books when I was little? I can't remember what they called the though, but you got them in the mail, dry...
