This lore I tell may be known by few,
But the puzzle is truer than true.
I’ve set out on my quest,
To resolve this strange jest,
With determination, I’ll find what’s askew!

At landfill prairie I roamed with dread
The mystery swirled round in my head
At last, like a flag,
A twenty-nine tag!
I grabbed it and onward I fled.

The field has been a wonderful friend
But my time here has come to an end
With joy I confess,
I’ve fixed up this mess,
Leaving others no doubt still to mend.

I was consulting

The total demo-meter

Wow! We’re almost done!

It’s an exciting time to be a demographer with the Echinacea Project… We are 69.3% done with total demo! We’ll start today with a team effort to knock out Landfill, which is one of our last big sites! Stay tuned to see how much progress we make!

This Just in- After a lengthy stint of measuring in P1, Team Echinacea finally completed all rows on the morning of Tuesday, August 8th. Hoots and hollers rang out near Tower Rd. at approximately 11:30 am.
“I’m happy to be done,” said Janice Anderson, member of Team Echinacea. “We don’t need to drag on it too much, but I’m ready to put it behind me and move on with my life. I wish P1 the best,” they added. Luke Settles agrees. “Where some see an end, I see a beginning.”

Wyatt Mosiman, who made a valiant effort in measuring and contributed much speed and determination to the project, echoes the general excitement of finishing. However when asked to comment, her only remarks were “Ouch, my knee”.

Team Echinacea would like to thank some P1 regulars that aided in the process, such as the giant field spider, the giant katydid with “face hands” and the tiny frog that found a home on Mosiman’s hat.

Abby Widell, another member of Team Echinacea is excited to be done, but maintains a solemn understanding that there is still work to be done. “We’ll see you soon, P1”.

It was a busy morning here at the Station
I barely had time to comb through Victoria’s Donations
A little past 11 I drove her to Perkin’s
Where much to my sadness the Groom Shuttle was lurkin’
We will miss you, Victoria, a whole heck of a lot
More than all the plants missing in our P2 plot
