So what did you do? Here is a little sample of what we did. We went with the kids to the civic center park, the one that hosts the Earth Day event each year. We cleaned up the stream. It wasn't too bad where we were, but we did get two trash bags full. And there was a strange large copper wire thing lying in the stream. Sophie and David and Jonathan enjoyed catching and releasing minnows, crayfish, and salamanders. Joshua spent a lot of time in the trees and I enjoyed cleaning up and resting under the beautiful old oak we were picnicking by. Sophie also had a good time at the playground with her dad. Back at home we got the gardens ready for planting and found that our compost bin was very busy over the winter and we have about 8-10 gallons of beautiful, black, sweet smelling compost to add to our gardens. Woo hoo! Gotta love those worms too, there were many HUGE ones in the compost. Lovely. More on the gardens coming up. I hope you all had a wonderful Earth Day and that you did something special for the original mother~Mother Earth. Blessings.
