It is a beautiful day here at 83 Durant. It's also Earth Day. Today we had a fun family adventure. Yesterday, Jake rigged up Carter's kennel so it fits on the bike trailer. Today, we got Carter into the kennel, and pedaled into town. We got lots of gleeful pointing and cheering. It was pretty fun. We were heading into town to pick up our New England Rain Barrel, which we ordered through the city (they got a special state grant to get discounted ones). The folks at the rain barrel distribution were very amused to see us, and wanted to know how we planned to get the rain barrel home. We came prepared, with bungees and ropes and whatnot, and here's the result.
We made quite the scene riding through town. We got some other great stuff at Earth Day, including a rain gauge and a fancy sprayer head for the garden hose. And we felt very virtuous doing it all on the bike.
