January the 6th Zoom Meeting: The Real Life of a Trailblazer!
As I began to think of the impact that Leanne's presentation made on me, the phrase, "God made dirt and dirt don't hurt!" came to mind. She totally embraces the mess, getting dirty, and remembering that a little soil never truly harms you.
It's part of living boldly!
Leanne is a testament to that quote as she heads off the pavement into the high desert in her selling area in a 4-wheel drive vehicle equipped with a reliable GPS. A set of tires every year, proves her worth in leaving rubber in her wake!
That shows a true commitment to the dirt life!
Here are 30 things that can be done with dirt, from the everyday to adventurous activities:
1. Build a dream house on a dirt lot.
2. Plant a garden and grow your own veggies.
3. Build a simple sand/dirt castle or mound.
4. Go off-roading in a 4x4 like Leanne does.
5. Make mud pies, a classic kid dessert.
6. Dig up worms for fishing bait.
