Share & Voice: Photo's

I LOVE being outside in nature doing whatever: hiking, swimming, sight-seeing, you name it. Since I love being outdoors so much, I figured I would share some of my favorite photo's of favorite places...

4th of July Fireworks...A night full of fun, bonfires, good food & good people

Tetagouche Park overlook in Northern MN

Canal Park in Duluth MN

One of the biggest snowfalls of the year...BEAUTIFUL! :)

My favorite place...Shovel Point (near Silver Bay, MN)! It was cloudy this day, but on a sunny day it is so pretty here!

   I guess you guys can tell that northern MN is my favorite place and has the prettiest places :) If you are ever looking for somewhere so go sightseeing or just to visit, I would definitely recommend this region!

Share & Voice: Eco-Friendly Flooring

   For this weeks Share & Voice, I looked at a website about eco-friendly flooring called "Eco-Friendly Flooring". This website is so cool! They offer all types of flooring including bamboo, recycled glass, and reclaimed & sustainable wood. All of their floorings are sustainable, recycled, and easy to recycle again. Their headquarters are located in Madison, WI.

Share & Voice: 99 Reuses for Plastic Bags

     While searching online for ways to reuse plastic bags, I came across the website for Planet Green. This is such a cool website! It is all about being eco-friendly and has TONS of cool ideas for green vacations, toys, etc., as well as everything from environment news articles, beauty tips, how to reuse clothes, to how to have a more "green" vacation.

     What really got me interested in this site is the article they had called "99 Reuses for Plastic Bags." I love that they put this up because we all have thousands of plastic bags just sitting around from shopping, and this article gives you ways to reuse them. My personal favorites were using old (clean) plastic bags as baby bibs, using old bags as kites, and keeping a few in your car for "emergency trash bags."

   As you can see, there are thousands of ways to make your life greener without even trying that hard! Give it a try for yourself sometime :)
