The last time was 1990. Seventeen years later -- the cicadas will make their appearance again in about May or June. Ugh!!!!!!!!!!! Is this just a Chicago area thing, Midwest, or is it the whole country? Probably not the whole country -- would depend on the climate. Not looking forwards to it.

Color, I know that we don't have, or at least have never had them in New York before. I found this site that has a lot of information on them. This is the link to a map of where they were located in 2004:

You can return to the main page of that site by clicking on the link at the bottom of the page.

Maybe it's different years in different areas. They last appeared in Chicago in 1990. In May/June of that year I had to walk a number of blocks to a hospital to visit my Mom. I remember having to carefully watch where I stepped . . . .
