What changes are you making?

But BSG it's not gonna happen. As my mutt and I walked around my "hood" this morning you can see the TV's on, people glued to the game, heck, I'm online right now.

Nearly 500 units in the condo association here, they landscape if agapanthus and ivy count as landscape. Three families garden, I'm one of 'em. A few others have at least planted roses, native plants in front.

I'm inspired daily to do more, sometimes seeing bees and hummingbirds enjoying the lavender and rosemary in front. This morning as I had coffee 3 birds enjoyed the feeder and water in the patio.

Tomatoes volunteered in my planters from the compost, two got ripe enough to eat. These might not make it to a salad stage. Still nice that they are here.

I'm going to come off as a Ludite or old fogey but people need to turn off the TV, log off and go outside. In this country our biggest farm product ... is lawn. Meanwhile we're loosing habitat for wildlife and recreation, wondering where the bees are and what's happening to them, and dreaming of the next happy meal and oh, don't get me started.

I saw a wonderful program this morning about Will Allen, bringing farming, open space and GOOD food to urban areas.
