treehugger

My Get Pushed - Round 43 challenge was given to me by rafartreides2009 and he wanted me to make an image of my flickr alias treehuggerdcg asking me “what’s in a name?”

 

So Raf here is my answer to your question.

 

A colleague once labelled me as a “hemp wearing, granola eating, treehugging druid”. He was teasing me because I always tried to live and eat as healthily as possible – growing and canning my own food if possible – only buying organic and locally sourced food, if possible – sewing my own clothes (made from natural materials and hemp, if possible). He thought he was being funny. We all laughed. Secretly though, I took it as a compliment. When I wanted to have an on-line alias, treehuggerdcg was an obvious choice. (The dcg in treehuggerdcg are, of course, my initials.)

 

Thanks for the challenge Raf.

TMSH 2/14/sh8 Finish - With this image I've finished exactly half of the 114 pictures in 2014 required for that group (57 completed) AND it also finishes the hunt for February's Monthly Scavenger Hunt. Not the expected interpretation I'm sure but... *shrug* ...I hope it's okay.
