This is not myth. This is fact. Reality! We cannot change it, we cannot stop it, we cannot even slow it down; all we can do is work to save our great grandchildren’s grandchildren.

Where do you go to see animals? Do you have to go to a foreign country to see wild animals? Do you think about this issue of responsible tourism? Is it sustainable also? Who determines this? Do this help the animals in any way, shape or form? If this costs more money why should WE have to pay it?

What can I say? I feel regenerated when I experience nature outdoors. When I am in The Bahamas I can stand by the shore and feel the breeze blowing in my face and wonder how far did this breath of air come to blow in my face? I can look up at night and see light from a million stars and wonder will I ever experience another world? What do get out of being in the outdoors?

I live in South Florida so we have two growing seasons. I just turned my 4×8 raised bed over and mixed in some compost. I covered the bed with a bunch of pine needles which do a fairly good job of keeping back the weeds. I then promptly left town to manage the business my father left my brother and me in Exuma, Bahamas for a week. When I get back I am going to start some seeds so by the time they are ready the soil should be in better condition than it was last year. Our soil is very sandy here so you really need to keep building it up year after year. Comments, suggestions, feedback welcome.
Thanks to Miss Lou
Thanks for the follow. I am very passionate about helping people to become sustainable. Behaviors like growing our own food and getting our own energy from the sun and wind are going to become survival tactics in the next 20 – 25 years. Not because you wouldn’t be able to buy them but because they will be priced so high most people will not be able to afford them or we will be in servitude to the ones who will supply it to us. We do not need to be tied to buying, buying, buying everything that is put on the market. We can make it ourselves to a very large degree. Just think about all the ‘stuff’ you buy and then throw away because someone tells you that you need to buy the same thing but ‘new’!!!!
Also think about what it was like to be in a community instead of in front of a TV all day long!
