30 down

Oh my! I just sent off close to 30 emails to our future sites, and then I'll be following up this week to solidify who, when, where to shot as we are on the journey. The more I research our sites and people, I get the little girl excitement, with my eyes widening, my head swirling of opportunities and questions that I want to ask the visionaries in their respective fields, and a foreign, yet welcoming drive. I want to know about wave energy, how mycellum absorbs chemicals, or how organic farming has turned to billions of dollar business. I want to know how small towns are coping with the normal economic stresses, yet are forging ahead with innovative sustainable practices, how cities are addressing critical environmental issues. and what initiatives are out there in building, transportation, education, etc. I'm looking forward to knowing more of my choices, because sometimes I feel a bit debilitated, and don't know really where to start. As I think of it now, I guess the starting part was months ago when we had the idea.:)

I was wondering if you could part of your adventure as a foundraiser. Tim and Gene were going to do that when they were going to hike theh Lewis and Clark trail. I also know a guy that did that when he swam the Columbia river to gain awareness about the pollution in the river. He then went to schools to talk about his experience. Just a thought. I hope all is well.-Annah
