Daily Dose of BS March 18 trees

The landscape at Riverside Park is a bit sparse.  The city of La Crosse eradicated 12 of the Ash Trees from the fabric of Riverside Park.  I am guessing that there will be a feeling of sadness and emptiness when we drive through Riverside this spring and summer, and of course the trees will be missed at Rotary Lights.  It saddens me to think that all these trees are gone from our beautiful city, and that our lovely canopy of leaves will for a long time be missing from the park.  I grew up in the Twin Cities and remember when Dutch Elm hit that area and the landscapes of the older neighborhoods changed.  I hope that something can be done to bring back some trees to Riverside Park.
