DO YOU GARDEN? I am researching a book called "My Very First Garden" (about edible gardening... fruits, vegetables, herbs, etc.) and need your true stories! Do you have a good (or even bad!) memory about the first garden you ever did? Was it inside in pots, outside when you were a kid, or in a community garden? Did you harvest anything or did the rabbits get it all? Please submit your short but true story to vikkibooks at yahoo dot com by April 27 2010. Your submission implies your consent to use your story and the possibility of (minor) editing. Thanks!

Today's Moment: Pollution

Sometimes the cold temperatures push the air pollution away, enabling us to see the city below us. The Summer heat and haze stops it cold; our visibility diminishes to maybe a mile.

We're working to change our lives to help reduce pollution (our carbon footprint). We try to walk and bike more, we've reduced driving as much as we can for now (Wife drives maybe once a week). We consolidate errand trips. We have our thermostat on 60 degrees, only raising it for showers in the morning.

What are YOU doing to reduce the air pollution?
