Cassi, our only girl kitty.....
Leo and Pixel...they think they are brothers!
Here is Lad....our blue merle rough collie.
And this is Ari, the tuxedo tabby, in August of 2006. One of the last pictures of him before he began to decline. He
died December 19, 2006 at the age of 15 years, 8 months. He lived with diabetes for 6 of his nearly 16 years, but was still alert to the end. He's
waiting at the Rainbow Bridge for me now, bossing the other cats and giving the dogs what for. Peace Ari.
"I was born upon thy banks, river/ My blood flows in thy stream/ And thou meanderest forever/ At the bottom of my dream" -H.D.Thoreau.
"...Man, who even now finds scarce breathing room on this vast globe, cannot retire from the Old World to some yet
undiscovered continent, and wait for the slow action of such causes to replace, by a new creation, the Eden he has wasted".
-George Perkins Marsh (1864)
"In wilderness is the preservation of the world."- H.D. Thoreau
"The conservation movement is a breeding ground of Communists and other subversives. We intend to clean them out, even if it means rounding up every bird watcher in the country." -John Mitchell, US Attorney General (1969-72)
"Proud to be a subversive bird watcher!" -StitchinKat
From the Take Action section of the website www.climatecrisis.net
Want to do something to help stop global warming? Here are 10 simple things you can do and how much carbon dioxide you'll save doing them.
Change a light Replacing one regular light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb will save 150 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
Drive Less Walk, bike, carpool or take mass transit more often. You'll save one pound of carbon dioxide for every mile you don't drive!
Recycle more You can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide per year by recycling just half of your household waste.
Check your tires Keeping your tires inflated properly can improve gas mileage by more than 3%. Every gallon of gasoline saved keeps 20 pounds of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere!
Use less hot water It takes a lot of energy to heat water. Use less hot water by installing a low flow showerhead (350 pounds of CO2 saved per year) and washing your clothes in cold or warm water (500 pounds saved per year).
Avoid products with a lot of packaging You can save 1,200 pounds of carbon dioxide if you cut down your garbage by 10%.
Adjust your thermostat Move your thermostat down just 2 degrees in winter and up 2 degrees in summer. You could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year with this simple adjustment.
Plant a tree A single tree will absorb one ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime.
Turn off electronic devices Simply turning off your television, DVD player, stereo, and computer when you're not using them will save you thousands of pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
Spread the word! Tell everyone you know about these simple ways to Take Action!

My main hobby is stitching
(of
course!). I stitch on a rotation,

I volunteer with a local environmental group, and have been known to do a little subversive bird watching!
Animals and the natural world are important to me, and I love being outdoors.
I also follow Duke Basketball,
