COLUMBIA NEIGHBORHOOD DASHBOARD
Our neighborhood has been gifted with a website on which all of us together can collect and share information. It’s now live. You can click on the link. There are forms to fill in so we can all update information. This will be more and more useful as neighbors fill in information. Noah & Jonny can modify the dashboard if we need more or different information categories. Please take a look!!!

You can also go to my blog site. The dashboard is in the right hand column. You can also scroll back through time to find earlier posts.
LITTLE FREE LIBRARY FOLLOW-UP
Someone has messed with at least one local Little Free Library, adding white nationalist information. It’s not overtly hateful but obviously points to the white nationalist ideologies. Please help check on local boxes, and other locations, remove such nastiness, and send me photos & locations if you would. Both the local police, and apparently the FBI & Anti-Defamation League would like copies, or the originals. If you send me photos and locations I will get those to the authorities. You are also welcome to report the materials yourselves. If anyone notices suspicious activity, please pay attention and report to the police. We are not helpless in the face of hatred. flip@columbianeighborhood.org.

MOTHERS DAY SONG
I wrote this for my dear neighbor Bea Doran for her 50th birthday – at least 15 years ago! She’s still an amazing neighbor. This goes out to all the mothers, and all the parents & grandparents & step-parents – to everyone caring for our children. As my friend Bob Franke wrote in his wonderful song Boomerang Pancakes, “It may not be one of the things I do best, but it’s the best thing that I do.”
