Rock, Paper, Scissors - Sustainable Sitting
November 24, 2009
When was the last time you played in the mud? Maybe we should do more of it! As part of a sustainability class my husband is taking the goal was to bring the community together and have a project that is helping to educate around sustainability. In this case, we built a cobb bench at a local elementary school. Literally, we dug up dirt on the site, mixed this with straw and a bit of water (mixing it more like mushing it with your bare feet) and used stones as a foundation as we squished the mud balls in between. Cobb building has been used for thousands of years and is energy efficient and inexpensive. How cool is that?
My take away: Getting dirty is very fun no matter how old you are.

Crusade Against the Mundane
Welcome to the Horny Toad Community. This is where you get to tell us what Every Day Is An Adventure means to you. The best part is that you will help define what the Toad Community becomes. So let us know what you think, check out an event in your area, or just sit back and laugh a little. The idea is to have fun!
