"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

Back from Hiatus

We were in hiatus due to another computer virus outbreak...finally got the computer back, whew!!

Many photos to follow capturing this beautiful fall season.

Mim's CC season is coming to a close this next Tuesday. Her HOOPS BB season has already started so we will be glad to get down to one sport for her. Ve and Tuki are still loving skating and my head is still spinning. Our ecycle drive is in two weeks, I am busy with admin classes and naturally school is busier than ever.

We harvested the butternut squash this weekend, we are at 51 and counting..anyone want any?

W are up to 57 pints of jam, 16+ frozen loaves of bread of various fruit and 20+ pie fillings of various fruit..plus too much more of other preserves to count. We still are waiting for the 1 bushel of apples that we ordered.

On November 2, I am scheduled for my breast cancer genetics test. Not worried yet!

I had a new and improved roof put on the Chicken coop to keep the rain and snow out
