PLANTING SEEDS BLOG: Happy New Year!
I love a fresh start and a new list of eco-minded resolutions. Here's what I'm thinking about for 2010:
- Take a hike -- Compile a list of kid-friendly hikes and go on them. I want to get my kids hooked on hiking.
- Go kayaking -- Take my kids on a kayaking trip on the Hudson. We were never able to accomplish that last year, and I am thinking this spring/summer will be the perfect time.
