Help Blues Frog and Peer to Peer Recovery art do some recycling

Sat, 14 Jun 2008 00:28:10 -0400

Keena Wells and I had to help front some materials, painting time, for organizations helping with the Blues Festival, and a group that was going to help us get our festival in with Strawberry, Earth Day, actually do cans and recycling spot and sort, didn't happen, but we've been part of the Dumpster Divers Union, or professional recycler sole proprietors, and will have some bags for plastic, as we know the number of bottled water we have as staff, and cans, not supposed to have glass in the park, but last year our festival, with some guests with the black bags, as it is free event, and crew did leave the premises in pretty good shape, and recycling some plastic, gets Keena some more paints, helps us recoup some costs to a nice donor who help out cause we were working for, be able to extend that $20 again, if we get that much in plastic bottles, and keep our art venue pretty clean, challenge rest of crew to help us.

haz mat train your divers

note, we didn't get into this exactly to support divers, or others, but, recycling in general......

letter into bee and city council, the meeting is tonight on new ordinance.

I think they should penalize improper disposal, be it haz mat waste, personal id in commercial dumpsters, as dumpster management a big component on this issue, or, you can learn a whole lot, just walking a site and how they keep their dumpster, or alley, what's strewn about, thrown out, how wasteful or anti recycling they are, by the dumpster...

blog run, carbon foot print, smudged reputation, benefits of walking

Sun, 20 Jan 2008 12:48:06 -0500

Blog run today, to warn you all, Jdc104 may soon be back behind the wheel once in awhile, not on my bike, back to being licensed, insured driver. Been an interesting experiment to do the Art Walk production, complete with walking to do the poster posting for the State Theatre while walking, good way to meet the other gallery folks, venues and places who post the posters, make some contacts, and I'm an all weather walker. Environmentally friendly, you pay attention to weather, wardrobe, thank Payless Shoe Source, xmas and birthday gifts of shoes and socks, hardly dissed for some time, sweaters either. Easy to gauge the crowd turn out after walking down to do the show, and appreciation of public transportation I rarely use, but ACE train to get into where I used to sometimes work, play, even hang art.

The way we look at our environment has changed in the past few years. My mother drives a hybrid. I wish I did, but I do drive a Camry, which is not quite as bad as other cars. I wish my father drove a hybrid, and we won't mention what he drives.
