Earth Hour

Well Earth hour came and went. I feel happy that we participated in the symbolic awareness. I must say that I wasn't happy with the battery powered votives I bought. Real candle light was so much better. Then we realized how much we take electricity for granted.

M is having a fine time in New Orleans this weekend despite his flight there being delayed by a couple of hours on Friday. He had a wonderful french toast breakfast and an air boat ride in the afternoon. He was also able to have the famous beignets at Cafe Du Monde and visited the French Market. Then they attended the Sheryl Crow concert. Sounds like he's bringing back all sorts of souvenirs for us.

Had a nice, coldish walk with a girlfriend this morning. We stopped for coffee part way. Well, time to go help K study.
