Earth Day is just a couple of days away. Here are some ideas, tips if you will, that you can use to celebrate the momentous occasion:
Write a multiple page letter on virgin paper to an old friend and send it in an envelope. Everyone likes to have their day brightened by getting mail.
Burn a log or two in your fireplace. . . April has been way too cold lately
Drive across country in you car to visit your parents, grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles, high school chums or casual acquaintances.
If your yard isn’t covered with snow, spread some weed killer. It’s best to nip those dandelions in the bud.
Change the oil in your vehicle. It’s the most important thing to do to promote engine longevity.
Take the kids on a snipe hunt. They’ll love the adventure and you’ll enjoy the entertainment.
Go on a vacation. In Europe. . . or Hawaii. You should probably fly. Time is of the essence.
Grill out in your backyard. Have a steak. The taste of animal meat fresh from the grill just can’t be beat. I like mine medium rare.
Have a bonfire. Roast a few weenies and make some S’mores. To make things exciting, throw in a couple of those old scrap tires you still have laying around. Black goes with everything; especially smoke contrasted against the beautiful spring colors.
Set off those leftover fireworks. Why should The Fourth of July get all the fun? Aim a few at those pesky but lovable geese that crap on everything and won’t leave your yard. Sure it’s exciting. They’ll enjoy it almost as much as you will. Almost.
Find a still standing tree (dead or alive - you decide), and make a nice chainsaw carving. Bald Eagles and totem poles are always popular. Unicorns? not so much. My choice is Smokey Bear.
Stay tuned for more celebratory ideas.
