    I won't get to it during this challenge, but perhaps next Summer I'll climb Pilchuck again!  I get to see it every day now.  It is calling to me.

    I don't have a garden yet, but I do have a compost bin in my back yard.  I know that by Spring, I will have some fertile soil for the new garden.

    What is everyone just stopped making messes that cannot be cleaned up?  Products which cannot be destroyed and decomposed, poisons which *always* end up poisoning harming species they were not designed for.  "Leave no trace" as a lifestyle, personal, and professional rule.
