A sphere of simple green,
With only butterflies to brood,
And bees to entertain,

A macro shot of a Coral fungus I saw at Brown-Lowery Provincial Park a couple of days ago, during a quick visit. Didn't see all that many fungi on my short walk, but appreciated each and every one that I did see : )
Later: thanks, Doug (dougwaylett), for your info. "This may well be Ramaria stricta, 'Strict Coral Mushroom' (?). It usually has greenish or yellowy green tips." Much appreciated.

We all want to live the great life but for many the great life is a distant blur.
You CAN have the simpler lifestyle you want, you just need to focus on it, decide what your willing to do or give up to get it and GO FOR IT !
Life CAN be a beautiful place to live, and you CAN afford to live there.
My dream lifestyle has always been a simple one, and one that my family of 6 has near achieved ...it is relaxing, frugal or should I say "thrifty" , spiritually sound, (we're still working on Healthy), happy, GREEN, environmentally responsible, and comfortable.
We have taught ourselves and our children that success is a personal achievement , we've learned to live by rules and limits, and give up some things to have others although I must admitt it wasnt easy and some days it still isn't , I honestly believe that GO GREEN SAVE GREEN can and will help you and your family Feel more relaxed in your lives and save money while achieving it.
We hope you'll use any or all of the tips in our photo blog on flickr to help you achieve the lifestyle you desire, live sustainably, and be able to get there by only readjusting your priorities, spending habbits, and needs vs. wants...
We want a Happy, GREEN world and hope you do too , but we also want to keep our heads above water financially to do so.
So lets get started and please post any tips you may have to help your fellow flickr members get to their dream lifestyle a little bit faster or easier.
