Frog's Way B&B

What keeps us happily employed:

Spring Chorus in Full Force! One of the first species to begin calling in the spring, the peepers are out all night in full force now, with their loud, high-pitched, jingle bell-like chorus of mating calls. Small and slender, roughly one inch in length, they breed in our 3 ponds and in our wetland areas. They have spent the winter burrowed under soil a natural antifreeze in their blood keeps them thawed. Soon their chorus will be matched by the mating calls of American toads. After a long Ithaca winter, they are such a joy to take in!

Two of my mindulness-activism images (see photos) won prizes in a local mural/"Justice Walls" contest and will appear in town sometime this spring and summer. Ithaca is rich in murals with a message (www.ithacamurals.com), and I feel very honored.

Another reason we like to vacation right we live

It's been a chilly April, but spring is unstoppable and nature's orchestra is definitely tuning up here!
