    One last day to see the progress of my teammates and post about my day. I think a lovely long morning at the dog park will start my day right.

    First solid day of rain in many months, and my usual collection of creatures on our morning walk was not present. Mariah missed the squirrels.

    Took a nice long walk around the Sylvania campus today. It is planted with an amazingly diverse set of flowers and plants. Really cool

    I watched a short documentary about the idea of humans carrying capacity of the earth and our responsibility to balance our use of resources with finding ways to give back to our environment

    I have become very diligent about water usage and have noticed how much water I was wasting by letting the shower run too long before getting in. This is now a change for life.

    Every morning when I go for a walk with Mariah(my dog), I take time to notice the different animals I see every day. I only know its the same creature if they are very distinct, like the Cooper's hawk I see on the lamppost or the grey and white cat, but I'm confident that I see the same House Finch and some of the same squirrels.

    I just finished a TED talk with Valerie Segrest regarding native American food sovereignty. Very enlightening
