    Great hike to Ancient Lakes on Thursday, raft and birding on Icicle River with Leavenworth Bird-fest yesterday (highly recommended by the way); my "staycation" is coming to an end but the Ecochallenge learnings will continue I hope!

    Looking to recycle some books? ?  I will accept children's books - especially at the 2nd-4th grade level to share with a young teacher at Columbia School. Many of her students are reading under grade level in the 4th grade. Contact me at deblapo@charter.net. Thanks!

    Here is a blog that my daughter started if you want points for subscribing reading environmental posts which is one of the challenges.  She is a Geosciences graduate student at Western Washington University. FYI.

    I was reluctant to join until I saw that Susan Evans sponsored a group for Columbia Elementary School.  I  jumped at the chance to possibly benefit  this high-needs school..
