Going Green on Green

Since moving here to Green St. we have been way more "green".... basically meaning walking/biking rather than driving.  I am not quite sure why that is.. maybe because we live in a very central location, maybe because we are trying to get some exercise, there could be a whole lot of reasons, but my best guess is because it is SO FLAT HERE!!!! After living in Eau Claire for many years, it is very odd to not see a hill anywhere!!!! I guess when I am on my bike, you won't find me complaining that it's flat :)

We leave for Spring Hill tomorrow.  Spring Hill is a 3 week summer training program in the Illinois/Indiana region (modeled after Group North for all you UWEC students).  We are going for a few days (not the whole 3 weeks) to help out, meet a lot of students from around the region and reconnect with the other staff for some staff training.  Although I am panicking about packing for it.  I find this rather odd... after living for months out of a suitcase, you think this would be no big deal... but I guess I have gotten used to being HOME (which is definitely a good thing!) I am sure we will enjoy it once we get there!

Hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend!
