post secret

Every Sunday, Postsecret in updated with the thoughts and whispers from people all around the world. Some are heart wrenching and sorrowful, others are humorous and sometimes endearing. It's amazing how many secrets I've come across....that i've thought once or twice. I enjoy the light hearted posts.

Earth Day

Good morning, the sun is out, the birds are restless and Twitter and Facebook are a buzz with Earth Day sentiments. Enjoy the day, show mother nature some love and maybe read an article or two on how you can celebrate Earth Day not only today, but every day.

I've delivered  the ecoDriver program in Durham Region for about 2 and half years, now more then ever it makes sense as suburban communities to drive fuel efficiently, buy a fuel efficient vehicle and DRIVE LESS.

Mr Mojo Risin

In between lounging, walks on the beach and the occasional volleyball game, I took some time on vacation to indulge in a little rock history. My sister gave me her tattered copy of No One Here Gets Out Alive when I was 14, I was instantly enthralled with Jim Morrison. 10 year later it still has the same effect. Highly recommend.
