Environmental Almanac | A tribute to an earth-friendly role model: My little brother

In late winter of 1984, my younger (and only) brother, John, assigned me little bit of reading, the section called "Sky Dance" from the April entry in Aldo Leopold`s book "A Sand County Almanac." This was a bit of a switch in our relationship, since at the time, I was a college senior majoring in English at Xavier University in our hometown of Cincinnati, and he was a junior majoring in wildlife management at Ohio State in Columbus — I was the one who assigned any mutual reading....

...Of course, John is still my little brother, so I`ll be joining him at the mic to help out, and we`ll tell some stories together. The Prairie Rivers Network dinner will take place on Friday, Oct. 26, at the I Hotel and Conference Center in Champaign. Advance registration is required, and details are available through the Prairie Rivers Network website at prairierivers.org.
