hell, they're everywhere..
I had one on the side of my house the other day & though a stick got caught in a spiderweb... then it started to crawl up the garage wall...
look on anything that gets aphids... rosebushes, fruit trees, my wife's hydrangea bush (that's where this one was going)...

Around here we call them Katydids also. I just wonder how it got so far North! I wish he or she would have showed some of the darn Mosquitoes the way!
