Going Green Update

I'm not sure which is weirder - that my wife bought me a rotating compost bin for my birthday, or that I thought it was the coolest gift ever? Probably a little bit of both. Here is the beast:


I'm planning on putting it together this weekend and getting started making dirt. Sweet! BTW, Costco has this on sale for $99 right now ... quite a bit cheaper than the quoted price on the manufacturer website.

We went to the Glendale Family Bike Ride a few weeks ago. Had a nice ride, if a tad bit windy. They had a nice "green fair" post-ride with different vendors and government agencies promoting sustainibility plus kids' crafts. Good stuff.



I love that Alex didn't take his helmet off the entire time we were walking through the fair.  Our little "special" kid.

 We're doing the Peoria Days Family Bike Ride this weekend.
