I appreciate the picture of the flowers and a big thank you to all those who care for them throughout our neighborhood especially those who participated in the BRR Garden Walk. I bicycled the Starry Night Garden Walk with a neighbor on Saturday evening and it was great. I was amazed at illuminated gardens throughout Black Rock. Don't miss it next year!

Are you related to Jerry and Keith from Hertel Ave?
Yes, Gerald and Keith are my brothers. We grew up at Hertel and Dearborn. I don't why anonymous B.R.A. would answer NO for me. This blog thing with all the anonymous people is disturbing. Why not let people know who you are? I don't get it.
