Recycle Santa Fe Logo1

Landfills are A) An increasingly expensive strategy for solid waste disposal. B) A potential source of groundwater contamination and methane pollution. C) A possible source of raw materials for manufacturing in the future. D) All of the Above.
My answer was D.

Recycling is one way to reduce many of the problems posed by landfills. While recycling isn't perfect, it diverts valuable materials and toxic substances from being buried in an unreliable grave.

Indian Popcorn ears

We've had the first hard freeze of the season, so the garden is done for the year. Unfortunately, a few green tomatoes went straight to the compost bin as I didn't pull them early enough. Now it's time to turn the compost and start planning for next year.

Here are a few colorful ears of Indian Popcorn that we'll be popping pretty soon.

Public Lands Day at Cochiti Lake with BSA Troop 53

I hope everyone enjoyed a part of our incredible public lands on September 29, 2007 - National Public Lands Day. My fiancée and I joined up with Boy Scouts of America Troop 53 from Santa Fe, New Mexico at Cochiti Lake Recreation Area. Park Ranger Greg Carpenter arranged all of the tools and materials and we helped build a wall to enhance the Pay Station and Information sign leading to the Boat Launch at Cochiti Lake.

Pajarito Ski Area's 50th Birthday

Ski Pajarito

A little bird told me that one of New Mexico's favorite ski areas is having a birthday. Yes, Pajarito Mountain ('little bird' in Spanish), just outside of Los Alamos, New Mexico is celebrating its 50th anniversary. If you haven't skied at Pajarito Mountain you may not know what you're missing. The ski area, which is definitely NOT a resort, isn't big, stylish or chic. But, Pajarito has great bump skiing, tight trees and a relaxed, family atmosphere that you won't find at any corporate-owned destination resort.
