Leadership

Our town had had, for the past ten or twelve years, a "Leadership" group: each year ten to twenty people get together once a week to learn about the community, touring schools and waste plants, discovering the history and the geography, and generally, learning how to be engaged in the place we live.
LOML and I took the program eight years ago, and tonight we went along to the annual dinner -- delicious barbecue, courtesy of a local restaurant, plus a lot of other good food --- to celebrate this year's participants.  A fun evening, and a reminder that one of the benefits of living in a small town is that everyone can join in and really see themselves making a difference.
And LOML managed to arrange that all the plates and cutlery etc were recycled! 
Yours, going green with LOML,
N.
