     On this 15th day of the #EcoChallenge, I'm thankful for a fun way to make the world a better place (and for the chance to #BeatSIUC), for new friends who are part of the #SIUEGreenTeam  (and the opportunity to be the #GreenerSIU), and hot coffee on a cool morning (and the likelihood that we'll  #BeatSIUC today!).

    This morning I'm thankful that the Salukis took the weekend off so the #SIUEGreenTeam can build a bigger lead to #BeatSIUC 😀, the few tomatoes left on the vine, and the sound of my roosters crowing.

    Today I'm thankful for a creative granddaughter who emails me often to keep in touch (she lives in Nebraska), a weekend with no plans, and the promise of a good rain.
