I agree with StormChaser. The ducklings should have been reunited with their mother. Were they? The article does not mention if the mother duck was taken with them.

On Waves of candy, politics pepper crowd at Labor Day parade in Janesville

Who sponsors the parade now? I was told that at one time this parade was sponsored by all of the unions in the area, and that after a few years without the parade, the UAW brought it back. So if the unions are still sponsoring it, why are there even Republican entries in the parade?

Also, I was stunned and disappointed at the number of people who not only didn't clap, but didn't even stand or remove their hats as the American flag and our Veterans went by. I have pics of this disgrace. What's up with that, Janesville?

What's a splash park? Is it like a little waterpark like in the Dells with slides?

On Wisconsin Rapids bans cell phones while driving

Worse than a speed trap! How does one traveling THROUGH this WI town know there is a law prohibiting cell phones? If laws are to be made regarding cells, it should be a statewide or even federal law. I was driving through Illinois, talking on my cell, not knowing it was illegal. Luckily, a guy in a truck next to me so advised me.

It would have been nice if someone had elaborated on what activities jeopardize these eagles and other wildlife, such as chemical disposal.

On What’s your favorite Rock County restaurant?

Posted on April 27 at 11:32 a.m. ( Suggest removal )

Probably because Bill is an editor for a Madison area newspaper and probably already did the reviews for another paper.
There should have ONLY been Janesville or Rock Co. restaurants in the 'local' paper.

On Do you heed tornado warnings?

I agree with Callitasiseeit. When the sirens go off, we immediately turn to the internet for radar and base our decision to seek shelter based on how close the storm appears to be to our specific location.
