    I would like to thank all my teammates and Joan Schrammeck, our  Sound Water stewards team captain, for your  hard work and participation this month. I wish that I could post on the team page or on Joan's, but I don't know how or if it's possible. I tried my best to win 1st place for our team. This is J27 Blackberry as he comes in to say hello....

    It's been fun participating in orca recovery day

    Yes, I put my actions to work when out and about. I pick up other peoples trash and dog poop when walking our beautiful trails in nature.  I adopted the Cranberry Lake Trail in Cama Beach State Park on Camano Island and keep it free of trash and other debris for all to enjoy.

    As a sendoff on this, our last day of the orca eco challenge, I like to show you a photo that I took in November a few years ago of our orcas in downtown Seattle.

    When I forget my bag, I gather the purchases in my arms...can't buy as much, have to leave the treats behind!  If I forget my dear reusable cup, no coffee. Not without challenges.  I need to remember bags for produce.  And sometimes coffee places will waste a cup to make the coffee they then pour in my mug.

    I've always had good access to public transportation. I took the bus to work when I lived in Seattle. Since moving to Camano Island, I drive much less and combine errands to only drive about once a week or less. Also, carpooling is an option now.

    Great fall walk today at the Camano Ridge Forest Preserve. It was much warmer than I expected. So many mushrooms growing everywhere in the forest. I especially loved these growing on a log.

    Autumn leaves have fallen! What a great walk today, soothing for the soul on this election day. Nature is calming.

    Educate by "doing".  Use sustainable products, decline straws, reuse water bottles and mugs.  Decline plastic bags
