If you'd like to join footsore311 and I, please let us know. Several members of our cleanup group will be out of state during this spring cleanup. We'd welcome additional help hauling marine debris from the beach - plus, it's a great excuse to go backpacking at the coast!
Not up for an overnighter? No problem! There are over fifty beaches to pick from and many have easy access!
Photos taken for work of the cleanup effort underway at Hoover High School and Meredith Middle School after severe thunderstorm. Hail the size of golf balls and larger damaged the roof of the campus, causing water damage throughout the schools.

Second day of cleanup. Amazed at how much back to normal it looks!! Kudos to the hard workers of Kyiv!
pine fell on a path and was kind of a corkscrew shape so certain measures taken to keep it from rolling while I cut it (wifeās photo)
Anyone know the story behind the derailment seen here? This is on the Toledo, Peoria & Western at Rogers Group east of Kentland, IN. Based on the grade crossings, no trains have traveled this line since the roads were last plowed. It looks like cleanup and repair is well underway. EDIT: Found this set of photos and explanation.
Semi-annual cleanup in the garage. Reorganized, picked up, lots thrown out. Will be racking and oaking the Syrah and Carmenere tomorrow. Always feels good when it's picked up.
Several Harrisburg Students participated in flood clean up effort run by the Lend-A-Hand program on Friday, September 30th. The clean up took place in Hershey from 9 a.m. until late in the afternoon. The group from Widener assisted in removing paneling and ceiling tiles from a flooded house that dated back to the 1700ās. Students were provided with rubber boots, masks and gloves.
Third year student Matthew Dorry said, āIt was a great experience to work with members of the community struggling to recover from the recent flooding. The event went very well. We tore down the basement interior quickly so the homeowner can obtain contractors to start rebuilding. Lend-A-Hand was a great opportunity for Widener students like us to assist others who need help.ā
Groups are continuing to be arranged. If you are interested in helping out, please contact Nicole Radziewicz at nradz704@live.kutztown.edu or Kristin Potter at kmpotter60@gmail.com. Sign-Up sheets are also available on TWEN.

We do a lot of positive redirection with our sheltie to control her barking reactions to various stimuli.
If she hears a dog barking outside my house while I'm in my office it used to be that her first reaction was to bark immediately in response, sometimes in quite a fit of spinning, jumping and excitement. While this is definitely something shelties love todo (bark) it is fairly counterproductive to me being a telecommuter as well as my general sanity.
so I always have a tray of treats on my desk and any time I hear a dog bark, doorbell ring or anything else that sets her off I immediately treat and redirect her attention to me. Thankfully I've got to the point where she actually doesn't bark and instead looks to me first to see if she is doing the right thing (and that I'm going to give her a treat for being quiet).
It has helped cut down on the 'oh sh*t' moments where she barks so suddenly and loudly that my heart almost stops beating. She also can recover if she does start barking and will come over and sit down next to me awaiting instructions.
Here we see her cleaning up the crumbs on the chair-mat in my office after the UPS guy showed up making sure everything is was the way it should be (in her mouth).

Images of Downtown Austin #22
During our long Flickrwalk, we stopped at a bar called Lovejoy's for some beer.
All of these images in this series were taken on a Flickrwalk I did with a bunch of friends back in late April. We started on West 6th Street at about 6:30pm. This series will show some bits and pieces of downtown Austin over 6 hour period. It was a long Flickrwalk and we did a broad loop around downtown. The images will be posted, for the most part, in chronological order. They vary quite a bit as we moved throughout the different parts of the city and as the day turned into night.

These workers in neck-to-toes hazmat suits, walked up and down the beach, bent over, picking up tiny balls of jelly-like oil, which they deposited in big plastic bags they dragged behind them.
Another year, another cleanup - and, as always, lots and lots of marine debris.
Myself, footsore311 and a couple of friends participated in the Washington Coast Cleanup this past weekend. Despite a weather forecast of rain, rain and more rain we enjoyed spells of clear skies, a lovely sunset, moon sightings and ferocious winds that managed to dry out all our wet gear upon departure yesterday morning.
I've been visiting Sand Point since my childhood. I've visited with friends and family. I've visited during all seasons. I've visited during wild storms (on purpose). I've night hiked in. I've night hiked out. When I embarked on my first solo overnighter a couple of years ago, Sand Point proved a fitting destination.
This past trip I was thinking about those visits, as well as the places that are nearest and dearest to my heart.
Sand Point is certainly one of my favorite places.
It is a place where my heart sings.
It is a place I will never tire of visiting.
It is a place I'm deeply thankful for - and as such, it's very rewarding to do my part to keep this treasured place a little bit cleaner.
What places are you thankful for? Be it a beach, mountain or forest trail - consider saying "thank you" to your favorite places by picking up garbage during your next visit.
