Okay...I'm getting ready for Earth Day..all this green stuff.  But really, what should it mean?  V...you are way better at this that I am..help me out.  I get this planet is the only one we have and that yes, we should always tidy up our messes, but in the grand scheme of things (think this volcanic eruption in Iceland) do we puny humans really make that much of an impact?  I really don't mean to sound facetious, but it does make me wonder sometimes, given the money we throw at environmental issues.
By the way...the header photo...those dolphins...just came to ride in the wake of a friend's boat in Florida last year.  He drove like a maniac, created all this wake and they hopped in and followed us for a half an hour.  Animals at play...totally joyful!
