I am off to a six week adventure of writing in the Sangre de Cristo Mts. of NM. Lacey will be blogging for the Crossroads. I am hoping for a big turn out at the follow-up meetings. Please invite colleagues and neighbors who want to be a part of sustainability planning and action.
Until October!
Susan
Great turn out at the Flagstaff happy hour. Looking forward to work moving forward from the summit!
Dear Anonymous,
That's great. Did you get a copy of the Summit Report?
Susan
Yes, I agree, the Flagstaff Happy Hour had a GREAT turn out! We did have a 1 page Summit Summary Report available as well as the full report. (Most people chose the full report).
Hey, folks. I am up in the Taos area writing. I happened to go up to Alamosa, CO and discovered the Earthship community along the way.
These are totally off the grid sustainable homes that are amazing. You can go online to see what they are doing.
