Reduce, Recycle, Reuse!
The last week of school, Savannah and I went on her field trip to Birmingham Southern College to learn more about recycling. I have to be honest. I wasn't really looking forward to this field trip. I thought it would be pretty boring and I knew that I 'm not as passionate about the 3 R's as I should be.
The campus was beautiful.
We began with a walk through the woods. The tour guide was so funny and kept things very interesting.
I climbed a very high, impressive tree house to take this picture.
After having to be so good and quiet, the man in charge (did I mention he was from Australia? I love listening to an Australian accent!) let the first graders take off running across a very large field to get their wiggles out.
We then headed to another part of the campus where the tour guide showed us how certain objects could be recycled.
Such as a toilet!
With a slide connected! Each student slid from one floor to the next and then the teachers took a turn. This is Miss Cooper, Savannah's teacher.
Phone cable can be turned into a ring.

These were some worn out children at the end of the day. I left wanting to be a better steward of my environment. There are so many things I could do differently.
