    It's annoying how i can only say i picked up 100 peices of litter in a day. Because the day before I went to my dad's house i picked up 305 peices of trash but i didn't know it was that much till yesterday. Anyways I'm kind of going to miss this. If you ever pass by sandy or speckles feel free to wave hi!

    Last day and and sure has been a tough go round this time! I am proud I was able to finally get some zero plastic swap projects completed this year and am excited to continue this journey. I can only hope that next July we will all be in a better world that will make this challenge easier!

    We haven't been traveling as much as we would have this spring/summer, so that has cut down on waste. I find I use more disposable items when traveling, since I feel I have less control over my environment and what's available.
