    On vacation and it's making it a little harder to keep in line with my challenges. Trying my best to stick with the practical ones such as short showers, recycling recyclable material, etc.

    I have recruited a number of my family members to join in on the Ecochallenge. I am excited to kick some of our family's poor environmental choices so that we can make our way to become more green-conscious people.
