Earthships - An Eco-Friendly Home Solution

        Did you ever think you could live in a house of trash?  Well, you can live in a house made from recycled materials like cans, bottles, and old tires, anything that could make a wall or foundation.  These earthships are very eco-friendly and can use their own electricity, from stored up energy from solar panels and wind turbines installed on the roof, house or lawn.

        These buildings are very architecturally unique and very durable and sustainable.  And the earthships aren't just a house.  They are designed to also provide a way to grow some plants or vegetables in their green house like areas built off the home.  Take a look at one of these creative earthships and a floor plan (below).

To The >>>>>MAXIMUM

        This morning I ran 6 miles.  It's the most mileage I've done since my 2nd day, which was about 5 - 5 1/2.  This is the start of my 3rd week, so I think I'm off with good mileage.  My guess for approx. the total amount of miles by now would be somewhere around 45 miles, maybe slightly more, maybe slightly less!  We always do more than 3 miles and most days it's between 4 and 4 1/2, and at least once a week we go more than 5, on a longer run!

Spotify

        With Spotify's music service you can listen to any song on the web or your compatible cellphone.  It lets you search for songs, artists, albums, or genres.  Once you've found it you can play it.  For free.  If you want to keep the song you can buy it but Spotify is really cool.  Watch the video below, visit the website, request and invite (all for free) and check this out today!  See what you've been missing.


Also Don't Forget

        Don't forget to look at The New House tab (above) for house photos, and remember to look at the Apple News page for any news apple, including new products and rumors about up coming releases and iPhones!  -Posted on daily

Cafe Rio


        Ever been to Utah, Nevada, Arizona, California, Las Vegas or Olney MD?  Ever seen a Cafe Rio?  I have!  These are the places Cafe Rio has it's restaurants.  Cafe Rio is a really good mexican grill similar to Chipotle, but different.  It has a different eating environment and really good entrees like burritos, enchiladas, toastados, and salads.  Everyone can find something great to eat!  I highly recommend this restaurant if you see one. 

Many locations out west & even in Maryland and Virginia!

Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows - Part 2


      

       Went to see the last Harry Potter movie yesterday.  If you haven't see it it's amazing.  No wonder it gets a 97% rating!

Are you a Harry Potter fan or did you just go to see the movie?  How did you think it was?
