San Carlos “Feed the Pail & Feed the Planet”
February 28, 2009
This is really going GREEN! I did hear of this coming, but was surprised to hear how quickly we can adopt ourselves when we need too.
San Carlos Residents in single-family homes will be able to put food scraps in their green yard trimmings cart for composting. (fruit, veges, coffee grounds, meat and bones, pizza boxes and soiled paper, paper cups and paper plates.
We will get a new green 2-gallon kitchen pail that will be delivered to our home during the week of March 2nd. This will be collected every week. Good thing, I was wondering about the raccoons that already like my garbage.

Now this is a historical home…

- Now here is a historical home….
Dracula’s Castle on the market…. Could you believe this was for sale? Ok, I know this isn’t in the RSB area, but I couldn’t resist. Of course, we (U.S.) wasn’t even on the map at this point. The family of the Dracula Estate has decided not to sell, but to make this landmark a museum. Some of this next sites are very interesting…

Facebook for Oldies but Goodies!
February 20, 2009
I was in the waiting room with my Mom for a doctor’s visit. Those of you that don’t know, she actually fractured her face, broke her nose, her wrists are broken. She fell outside of Trader Joe’s in San Carlos. The “car stoppers” at the disability spaces and here I was getting her out of Michigan so she wouldn’t fall and hurt herself. Go figure! It was evening and they are painted black like the parking lot color. With all the doctor’s visits that she has, I have been doing a lot of magazine reading. Today, I found the current issue of TIME for February 23, 2009 and it had an awesome article about Facebook and us Oldies. (Referring to myself, of course) I had to ask the receptionist to make a copy for me. It was just so true. My teenage daughter thinks I should never be on it and we have had the same conversations as this article. I won’t tell you what else she said. Check it out. If anyone wants a copy of the article, I would be happy to send you on.
