keeping it green
Mar 29th
I have been taking advantage of the slower time here at the greenhouse to work on those back burner projects. One of these is fixing up the bathrooms. Not very high ranking on my list of cool things to do, I know… However a few weeks ago Barb went to a film festival and told me about a cool video short she saw about some guy in the Philippines who is using old plastic soda bottles to make lights. It’s called a liter of light project and is very cool. While I was working on our bathrooms and climbing around on top dealing with rewiring issues I had a mini-aha moment. So as I was inspired by the liter of light project I whipped up my own. It’s actually very cool and it seems like unless you are doing your business at night, we don’t need to turn the light on. This picture was taken with no flash on a cloudy day. It’s definitely brighter on sunny days. My own LOL.
