Hoover High School held a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) Kickoff at the Science Center of Iowa on November 1st. A STEM presentation about the program was given to 9th graders who are beginning the program. In the presentation, a study emphasized that demands of STEM related jobs in Iowa.

On Veterans' Day, I photographed the eastern side of the community park in my neighborhood. The original purpose of this picture was to show members of my town council how many trees along the eastern edge of the park had been felled since 2013, when the park was first founded by a couple of civic-minded middle-school girls.
The fence around the back yard in the background is new, but had it existed twelve years earlier, you couldn't have seen it from Waverly Place, where I stood when I took this picture, because of all of the trees in front of the sidewalk and along the back yard in the foreground. That's how barren it's become.
As for what's left . . . yeah, well, the park was in transition at the time (and still is, really). I had already taken down a great deal of the burning bushes that took over this parcel of land with stakes marking the stumps, which take a year to deteriorate enough to remove. A garbage can is seen lying on its side (November is a windy month), and it was soon to be filled with more burning-bush cuttings, which are in a pile right next to it. The upside-down planter marks where I plan to put a birdbath to provide some decoration.
By April 2026, I hope to get the local environmental commission to plant new trees and bushes here. I tried to plant some maple seedlings I found. They didn't work out; one got eaten by local wildlife to the point where no stems were left, hence no ability for leaves to grow in the spring, and an animal tore out another one entirely. I can't find the right netting for such seedlings, either.
