Vinnie Roncelli 10/19/2017 7:53 AMTaking this challenge to Florida! While flying isnt the most sustainable choice, I am going to get some really great personal time getting back in touch with the environment and my first love - The Everglades. :) -
Vinnie Roncelli 10/17/2017 7:52 AMI have been cleaning out my closets, cupboards, and drawers a little bit every day and sending stuff off to thrift stores or the recycling center. Feels great to get rid of things I haven't touched in years!-
