This 365 has brought something to light for me. I like to photograph people in the midst of places that I find interesting. Maybe i like the colors; the light; the architecture; the space itself. and then i like to plop myself in it. maybe i see things that way because I'm doing this self 365, or maybe i just really like spaces and this is a way for me to get both done at the same time.

College of the Atlantic Students Eli Mellen and Julie Olbrantz transformed an upstairs bathroom at The Naturalist's Notebook into a darkened cave, complete with homemade rocks, stalactites, stalagmites and bats. They turned one wall into a black chalkboard on which visitors could do "cave paintings" in chalk, and the result was a wonderful succession of illustrations. This is a 2011-12 installation.

I thought about doing something big for the last day of the Challenge, and also because it is Earth Day, but then something that Hightouchmegastore wrote on her blog about the small things that we do are really what is going to make a difference, and I realized that this is what the Challenge is really about: we do make a difference in the small things we choose to do. Yes the big things are important (hell I've already given up driving for all intents and purposes) but the small things that we can continue to do beyond the EDC are what really matters. As a matter of fact all of my things I think I can keep doing.
Now as for sweeping, there are a couple of benefits: you don't waste water by hosing down the porch and secondly you cut down on vacuuming because not as much of the outside is tracked inside. Sweeping the porch, in fact, used to be a daily activity for our ancestors. I still recall that every morning my grandmother would go out and give the porch a once over. Why? So she didn't have to spend more time sweeping her carpet. Of course by the time I recall her doing this, she had a vacuum and it was simple for her, but old, and much more earth-friendly habits died hard with her.
My grandfather, as well, would regularly rake the yard for the same purposes. It was interesting whenever they came and visited: the yard was raked and the porches were swept.
I think I'll make it a part of my daily routine to sweep the porch.
