A beautiful white blanket covers the scenery in Micihgan this time of year. I don't recall a winter in the last 20 years that has provided white cover as often or as much as we have seen this year. If you are one to venture in the woods this is the type of view you will find. It's breathtaking...it's beautiful....
it's cold!!!!
Ah...a cozy 76 degrees F inside staving off a 7.6 degree F temp outside!!!
You may ask....what is making it so warm inside? I must confess, I have a fire going in the old wood stove!That keeps the heat in...so does soup on the stove...mmmm...potato soup and vegetable soup! There is nothing like a steaming hot bowl of fresh soup to warm the soul! and then there are the ECO~All~Stars on Active Rain!
They are a little like Chicken Soup for the Soul!
Today I have talked with:
Dave Roberts and his great ideas for sustainable building desings!
Amy Le and I had a conversation about retrofitting homes and making them more energy efficient!
I learned today from Mike Kelly that Catawaba County is refunding permit money for homes that are being built with third party certification.
Greg Gardner shared his information on land trusts and gave me a starting point for learning about them!
Gary White in Grand Rapids who offers great tips for greening and energizing an existing home!
These friends and others kept me warm today with their articles! So many interesting things to read!
Who says I don't have friends! I have so many when I play in the Rain!!!
Active Rain and the Eco~All~Stars....
what a great Bridge to the Future of the Industry!!!
Are you crossing the bridge????
Thanks to AR and all my friends from around the country who kept me warm today!
If you had conversations in the rain today please feel free to leave a synopsis and link in your comment! Let's spread the warmth!!!
Yes! I do have a life!!!
