Green, Green and more Green - A Cleaner Planet - 05/26/08 04:14 PM
I am not one for "banging on my drum" about turning green or saving the environment or green house gases. That said, I am all for "Green Building" or Environmental Friendly Building" on the basis that it makes sense and why would you not go green in this case.
Since when was building a home to be durable, energy efficient, built from renewable materials and with a low toxic content a bad thing.
If we turn this around, you have got the following. A poorly built home that is wasting money through poor insulation and energy efficiency that is made from materials that … (2 comments)

Silence the neighbor........hood! - 05/26/08 11:33 AM
I saw this and it made me smile.
I, like a few other people probably like moving the yard. The two downsides to it can be the noise and on the old occassion starting the mower.
Being from the UK, it is not uncommon to see an electric mower with extension cable trialling behind, awaiting to be cut in half. And remember the UK is a 240v domestic system, so you will feel it.
Anyway, I have never seen a battery operated mover........ Introducing the Neuton® Battery Mower

Neuton, located in Vergennes, Vermonts, tarted producing these mowers in 1985.

My 100th ActiveRain Blog - The Numbers - What do they mean? - 05/24/08 02:54 PM

When I first joined ActiveRain, I remember seeing a post about someone's 100th post. I thought 'WOW" how do you get there. The answer in my case was time.

New Stop Light - Traffic Warning - 05/21/08 10:36 PM
For those of you who travel the area frequently, you will have noticed that a new Stop Light has been installed at the intersection of Clements Ferry Road and Cainhoy Road, Berkeley County.

This is an improvement to the junction of these roads, especially if you are turning from Cainhoy Road on to Clements ferry Road towards Mount Pleasant. The reasoning behind it, I'm not sure. There have been a few accidents at that spot and there is more traffic coming down Cainhoy Road with the addition of new subdivisions like Brightwood Plantation.
 
The thing that I have found … (1 comments)

Whooops - 05/14/08 07:24 PM
I'm posting this more for it's visual aspects than anything else.
My wife and I were on our way to a property auction in downtown Charleston today. A couple of blocks before we got to our destination we passed this.
It was enough to make me stop and get the camera out.



As I don't know the reason it has been left like this a present, I think it's use must be for a caption competition. No prizes, but have fun.
