Welcome To Las Vegas




What a pleasure to meet Miles and get together with the gals from the Noyo Food Forest. This vision of a county wide effort to grow our own food is the right thing to do, and we can do it. There IS a learning curve to this Internet space. It is not as easy as some will say. There are huge issues of privacy & personal security, but I am taking this leap because there are real opportunities for communication and outreach that are irresistible. Don't be intimidated.

Just to add some spice to this casserole I'm going to throw in a few pictures I took in Las Vegas this year. Please note the water level in Hoover Dam and the dizzying number of cranes on the Las Vegas skyline. Many of those cranes have stopped working (there is no $) and the scarcity of water has driven planners in Las Vegas to propose policies far greener than many we have seen here in Mendonisia.
