long time no blog

It's been a very long time since we blogged, and in that time we've moved back to our old apartment from the farm (bummer!), but it's probably for the best in terms of workload...

Jim's trying to finish his PhD this summer, and I'm studying for my comprehensives, as well as writing and doing some image work... busy busy.

I did see something I wanted to share,- it's important to do everything we can to
decrease our impact on the earth, and how better but to walk or bike! Especially during this time of year, when it's beginning to be warm and beautiful outdoors, why not take a few minutes, enjoy your surroundings, and use non-motorized transport to get places, run your errands, and get some exercise! In many areas (including our current location) it's easier and quicker to take a bike to the store than it is to drive- I know it's not an option for everyone's location, but I think that once you start, it becomes more attractive to bike or walk instead of driving (not to mention horrible gas prices...)

Anyway, here you can see what locations are within just 2 miles of your home/office/wherever- and a 2 mile bike ride just takes a few minutes! Enjoy :-)
