The rain didn't stop kids from celebrating Earth Day at the Harriet Alexander Nature Center in Roseville. Crafts, games and tree planting were part of the festivities, but the Earth Day parade was canceled because of the rain — rain that was welcomed by Mother Nature. These children helped plant, water and mulch a viburnum bush in the back of the nature center.
