		<description><![CDATA[Every day I cross the Maclay Street bridge on my way to work and on my way home. I&#8217;ve noticed how overgrown the weeds have gotten and how they seemed to have taken over the sidewalks. Finally, I found myself sitting on the bridge in traffic and looked over to my left. I was looking [...]]]></description>

About 10 years ago I had the opportunity to drive across the country and found Utah one of the most beautiful states to drive through. The scenery is such a contrast from what we have on [...]]]></description>

We didn&#8217;t start work until 1PM so we took the morning to explore the show and take some photos. All of my photos were shot with my Nikon D70 with 50mm f/1.8 lens. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our second stop on our Pennsylvania photo trip was the Concrete City located near Nanticoke, Pennsylvania. This area was built in 1911 for the management of the local coal industry. The area was abandoned in 1924 and left to be reclaimed by nature. In 1998 the Concrete City was declared a historic site.

Centralia is a town in the coal region of Pennsylvania has had a coal fire burning below it since 1962. Most of the residents have moved but some still remain. More info on Centralia can be found through David Dekok&#8217;s website [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I find it a bit bizarre that we as a nation go through so much strife to fuel our comfort levels. Some may disagree, but I believe some of the reason we&#8217;ve been involved in war in the Middle East is because of oil. Thousands of soldiers have died. But it&#8217;s ok, because we&#8217;re still [...]]]></description>

At check out I was asked if I&#8217;d like to purchase a bag to use for my items. They had boxes [...]]]></description>

They state that the car gets 32 miles per gallon! And I think to myself, &#8220;My 1998 Honda Civic gets 32 miles per gallon highway.&#8221; Let&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I seem to be on an architecture kick lately. I&#8217;ve always been fascinated with architecture and even wanted to become an architect at one point in my life. Recently I learned about LivingHomes. These homes are designed by architects but are built in factories to very precise standards. They also use natural, non-toxic and sustainably-derived [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I watched this movie over the weekend. I&#8217;m a sucker for documentaries and such. It was very interesting. I remember back around 2000 a co-worker told me his mom had leased an electric car. And I was always curious if these cars had heat and air-conditioning. Anyways, I didn&#8217;t hear too much in the news [...]]]></description>
