    I really enjoy my walks, as I use them as a way or relaxing. If there were some statues around town however my walks could be more enjoyable. My walks also give me a deeper appreciation for nature.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Transport Try Carpooling
    List some of the places you frequent often (work, grocery store, natural areas). Could you choose one or two days a week to schedule driving with a friend, neighbor or co-worker to these places?

    1. School: Everyday I get a ride to school from my brother, even on days when I could sleep in. 
    2. Lacrosse practice: I almost always arrange rides with my friends after lacrosse practice.
    3. Going to a friend's house: I could definitely arrange more carpools for this. In fact, tomorrow night I am supposed to go to a friend's house, so I will definitely see if I can drive others or others can drive me.
