#16 - Night Life
July/August 2008

When you snuggle under the covers at night, a whole other world is just waking up. Owls, bats, raccoons, and slugs begin to search for food and the sweet scents of night blooming flowers such as honeysuckle fill the air. Many people are awake a night too. Hospitals, ambulance stations, and even some grocery stores are open 24 hours a day and truck and taxi drivers are busy too. In this issue of KNOW, we're seeing who's awake when you're not!
