Recycling Search Tool

Use Earth911 recycling search tool to help locate a recycling center near you. You can also find out where to take difficult to recycle items such as paint and batteries.
I've now added it to my site in the right column.

Midway Horses



Ryan and I took a scenic route from Lexington to Midway last week and happened upon a horse farm (imagine that in Central Kentucky) with SIX, yes SIX baby horses! We saw them running and playing with one another! It was a picture perfect scene and something to see that completely makes one's day.
So we went back this weekend and took some pictures. It was a bit too late and we were lacking some light, so we'll return again for some better pictures. Anyway, here's an up-close shot I got of one of the babies.

Yuck



This is how I'm feeling today because I have some weird eye allergy that I can't seem to get rid of. It pops up every few weeks and I look like I'm 60 years old because my eyes dry out and get all wrinkly. Help.

Katrina Help

What an embarrassing and sad mess. These things make me so angry, but what can I do as an individual to help?

Picture of the Month - June 2008



On June 19th it will be four years!

Environmentalism?

What are we doing as environmentalists? Not the right things. This article depresses my excitement of the "little things" we are doing such as recycling and reducing driving and such. It seems to be all for nothing. Because, which so surprises me, not all cities/towns have recycling programs and we all know of the WONDERFUL mass transit system we have in this country. These changes have to be big. And, I like how they said in the article, let's make it is race to be the first country to make these drastic environmental changes, like the race to send a man to the moon.

On a happier note, something that I have found that is worthwhile to invest in (hopefully) is Native Energy. This is a program that Ryan and I donate to each year to help develop alternative energy options such as wind and methane. You can choose where you money is used. We request ours to go to wind power. Check it out.
