An impressive summer storm rolls through the Paint Creek Valley. The equally impressive wildflower display is at the Arc of Appalachia's Steel Preserve, which is part of their Junction Earthworks Preserve. The field before you were croplands in the very recent past. Now, inestimable tens of thousands of bumblebees and other pollinators, scores of other insects, and meadow birds such as Henslow's Sparrows make their home here. Along with Kelly Capuzzi and Phil Mellilo, I stopped here yesterday on the return from Mothapalooza to see this amazing place. The storm was a major bonus. Chillicothe, Ross County, Ohio.
