Excellent! So beautiful! Living through all the noise and construction was really tough but it's paid off. And where they cut down one big tree they replaced it with about 25 little ones so I guess that's okay.
Can't wait to get out there more!! We've only gone to Jericho 2x...but hope to start riding down there daily!!

"400,000 people walked through the streets of NYC to make a statement to world leaders:
Act on climate change now!
Act on climate change now!
While many world leaders met in New York this week (Sept 23-26) to discuss how to act on Climate change Canada's PM Stephen Harper chose not to attend. Due to the aggressive expansion of the Alberta oil sands, Canada is set to become one of the world's worst climate criminals, while being left behind by the emerging renewable economy.
Meet the largest social movement of this decade and the greatest challenge yet faced by humanity.

"Indigenous leaders at the Peoples
Climate March in New York speak to the urgency of Climate Change and the
need for all of us to be #IdleNoMore. From the Amazon to the Arctic,
Indigenous Peoples are defending our climate and teaching allies about
how extractive industries are directly connected to sovereignty,
colonization, and violence against Indigenous women.

For Immediate Release
September 17, 2014
March Organizers See Surge of Momentum for People’s Climate March; Over 100,000 expected for September 21
New York City — Over 1,000,000 flyers have been handed out across New
York City in the last five days. Hundreds of volunteers are canvassing
subway stations across the city. 496 buses are coming in from nearly all
50 states. More than 32 marching bands are ready to play. It’s
official: the People’s Climate March is going to be big.
If the weather holds, over 100,000 people are expected to attend demonstration on Sunday to demand bold action on climate change. Police have blocked off traffic on Central Park West from 59th St. to 86th street to accommodate the tens of thousands of students, workers, parents, scientists, beekeepers, and more who are joining the march.
A People’s Climate March will host a general press availability and press conference will take place on Central Park West between 59th st. and 61st st. from 9:30am-11:00am on Sunday morning. The press conference, from 10:00-10:30am, will feature a diverse group of seven people telling their personal stories of why they are joining the march. Due to limited space, press must RSVP to media@peoplesclimate.org to attend (a RSVP does not guarantee admission).
Beginning at 10:30am, different groups taking part in the march will host small rallies up and down the march route to fire up their contingents or deliver public statements. At 11:00am labor unions will host a rally with thousands of members just south of Columbus Circle on Broadway.
The march will begin at 11:30 a.m. at Columbus Circle, head east on 59th Street, then south on 6th Ave, west on 42nd Street, and finish at 11th Avenue and West 34th Street. The front of the march is expected to reach the end of the route at about 2:00pm.
At 1:00pm, after a moment of silence to honor those impacted by climate change and the fossil fuel industry, the march will “Sound the Climate Alarm” with drums, trumpets, vuvuzelas, and over 20 marching bands. Churches across the city will ring their bells, as Jewish temples blow their shofars, as part of this global climate chorus calling for action.
The march is the product of months of frenetic organizing. At a pop-office on 42nd St and Madison Avenue, dozens of volunteers are working the phones and laptops late into the night to help with the Get Out The March (GOTM) effort. Student activists report that there are now young people coming in from 320 campuses across the country. In the “Faith Hub,” hundreds of local and national religious institutions, from all backgrounds, are turning out their members for the march.
Across the East River at a three story warehouse in Bushwick, artists, cultural workers, and hundreds of volunteers are churning out banners, placards, puppets, inflatable art pieces, and giant floats that will be pulled by biodiesel vehicles (or by hand) during the march.
“This is the final crunch, the product of six months of work to make the People’s March a big, beautiful expression of the climate movement,” Rachel Schragis, who is helping coordinate the arts hub told the New York Times on Wednesday.

Share a Spliff Christie, The Kids Want to Go Back!!
Well now, if I had my way I would take this opportunity and re-vamp the whole public school system to be about gardening, harvesting, cooking, building cob houses and doing lots of eco things.
http://zipolitemexico.blogspot.ca/2014/06/lets-build-eco-school-in-zipolite.html
But I am not. So all I can do is dream and hope that everything works out soon.
Many people are suffering. It's the poor of course. Because some people ...mainly single parents that were using school to help them so they could work and support there kids. And some of those were teachers.
The whole thing is so messed up...because of course those with money just put their kids in private school or went off on vacation.
Now we are neither rich but at the moment I don't consider myself poor. I am working and lucky for me my kid is 12 and so she can fend for herself pretty well while I do work. And lucky for me, I have learned never rely on the system because as soon as you do, it will pull the rug out from under you and you'll be sitting on your ass wonder how that truck hit you!! Do you hear what I am saying.
Angel hasn't been super bored or lonely because she can cope with change. I haven't put her in this routine of mundane repetition for last six years...nope just part of that. Kindergarten, half of grade 4 and then all of grade 6 and what happens, a strike and she doesn't even get a report card.
That said she loves her teacher and wants to go back and see her friends.
Will it happen.. maybe...maybe this is the weekend.
In the meantime I find it hilarious that some guy sent Christie Clark some weed and told her to smoke it with Fassbender and Ready - so they will all chill out and get down to business.
http://www.straight.com/blogra/728141/dont-worry-striking-teachers-christy-clarks-pot-actually-mail
http://www.vancitybuzz.com/2014/09/pot-activist-mails-christy-clark-marijuana-end-teachers-strike/
"While the marijuana is an acknowledged stunt, Larsen hopes to get the message to Clark that legalizing and taxing marijuana could boost revenue in the province–enough to further fund education. (And, hey–Vancouver could totally grow some of the cash crop on a downtown rooftop. Just sayin’.) Of course, there is a little laid-back humour in the gift. “I thought if [Clark] could get together with Peter Fassbender, Jim Iker and their negotiating teams to share a joint, it would help break down some barriers and give the BCTF negotiations a fresh start,” he said in a release. The package was delivered Friday morning "
In the states Colorado and Washington are reaping huge benefits from the legalization of pot. When is it going to happen here.
It makes a lot of sense. Anyways get with the program you guys.
I heard from someone that Christie Clark she was going to make a voucher system...where everyone gets a certain amount of cash to raise their kid in private, public or homeschool.
Now I despise Christie Clark and her anti-environment and anti-family ways but I do like the idea of this. Truthfully I would rather just see our school and yard turned into a big garden and kitchen and we feed all the kids and teach them how to grow food and build shelter for themselves.
Anyways these songs are for you Christie, have a happy day. Enjoy your spliff!!
http://globalnews.ca/news/1560173/bctf-government-back-at-the-bargaining-table-with-vince-ready-friday/
Oh just a little more fun. See how I spelled C.Clark's name... it's like this video and what it says in the beginning. Just felt I need to give a little back of what she had given us. Ha! Ha!!
