"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day
RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.
Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle
Today;
I woke at 4:30am because DaVinci wanted to go out for a potty break
I took a bike ride early this morning
We took a trip on the canoe
We cleaned house
sold 9 dozen eggs
started some the vegetable seeds
napped
ate well
Now, I am tired
Heading out to the canoe
Mim's maiden voyage
The three geared up
Kiki instructing canoe basics to the girls - they did a decent job listening - Mim braided Tuki's hair
The happy crew
All seated and ready to go - if you look closely, you can see Ve's attempt at a short cut. She has few spots like this, and the rest I attempted to even out. Ve nor I are hair stylists...
We saw many painted turtles sunning themselves today
Osprey setting up their nest
View from a far- thought it was pretty
I was up front and so I attempted to take pictures by holding the camera in the air..my face is one of concentration
The girls having fun
Mim' face is priceless...LOL
Playground play after the trip om the water

Your look of concentration made me laugh out loud! I love reading about your family adventures because you are SO MUCH more adventurous than I am! Keep on...I'm almost inspired to go camping or rent a little boat...almost!
