April 24 at 10:26 AMI'm not going to get to this challenge of reducing paper by online billing and subscriptions. Darn. I actually wanted to dig into all the junk mail I receive at work and home and get off mailing lists. But this takes a lot of time! There used to be a great app for this, but it seems to have gone away. If anyone has any good tips for reducing...

April 24 at 10:24 AMWhile I didn't meet the challenge of taking a daily walk, when I did, it made my day better! Being outside, noticing changes in the weather, noticing how walkable my neighborhood is - all contribute to a better sense of place.

April 24 at 9:46 AMDoing an energy audit is still on my list of things to do. My house is very old and I know there is poor insulation in a number of places.

April 24 at 7:49 AMWith Engineers without Borders I was leading a team to build a bridge in Kenya. There was one Kenyan woman on our construction team with mostly males. One day, we had to cut half of the laborers because we were only doing some light painting. The lady looked at me and asked for the job, but I was so afraid of stepping on the toes of the Kenyan...

April 24 at 7:49 AMI commuted to school by bike. My Dad commuted by bike and bus to work for 30 years. My first car was the most efficient car I could find and so will our next one. A testimony can make a difference. My sisters each have a Prius. Cost savings is a great incentive,

April 24 at 7:44 AMWe discovered wonderful places to visit in our state. A family vacation is really about time spent together experiencing new places. We don't have to go far to do that.
