The Morgan family has finally taken the plunge and is going to start recycling.
It was an uphill battle with out Municipal Utility District or MUD. We had to fill out an application, which then had go to Round Rock Refuge to be approved. Then we had to agree to a 12 month, $4 a month change to have the privilege of recycling. Then when I got home on Thursday night our new baby had arrived. A pristine recycle bin that we can no put our unmentionables, such as magazines, paper, and cans. I am hoping my efforts will save an oak tree somewhere out in the woods so that my grandchildren can carve their names. I will keep investigating to ensure that our trash is truly recycled, but until then: Go Green!!!
In an effort to use less energy we have also replaced all of our standard lightbulbs with compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also known as a compact fluorescent light bulb which use significantly less energy, have a longer life, and put off less heat which means our A/C usage and bill should be less.
Much Love, Byron Lynn.

Finally joined the club, huh. Welcome.
You know us Briscoe's...recycling everything.
Congrats! The Oregon Tree Hugger life is finally taken over-lol. Those light bulbs are definitely way better-we've been using them for awhile now and we love them!
It is amazing how much garbage is actually re-cyclable.
"Multiply and re-plenish the earth."
You are doing both. Congrats.
Love Mom
