I'm working so not doing anything special for Earth Day, but we do all kinds of things for the earth on a regular basis...I just thought to celebrate today, I would share these awesome shots I got of our beautiful Earth this morning.

In a way, I'm glad there is Earth Day because it helps raise some awareness. But I honestly don't celebrate one day for the earth. Everyday counts. Everyday I try to at least think about if not do something helpful for the plant and be grateful for this planet that sustains us.

I am a piss poor activist and I usually procrastinate my way out participating in even the simplest tasks of signing petitions and email/calling my reps.
I console myself with the fact that I grow large amounts of produce and live a very minimalist lifestyle in the country. I don't buy or have things that most people buy and have regularly and I recycle the old fashioned way, by fixing, repurposing, and doing without. A small thing I do that I am always proud of is that I don't buy gifts for the kids in my family, I build them castles and boats and rocketships from cardboard boxes. I posted a pic of the latest one in the "high right now" thread.
