    My donation was for Y2Y, the Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative that is working to create wildlife corridors along the 2100 miles between these two natural areas. I love the idea of restoring habitat and creating safe bridges for wildlife over the freeways that bisect their homes.

    I read that boric acid is effective on carpenter ants, which surprised me -- I know that it is recommended for the little sugar ants, but I didn't know that it is also recommended for the larger, more destructive carpenter ants. Definitely worth a try!

    Today I donated to the Sunrise Movement, even though demographically and by disposition I am closer to the activists in Third Act. I am deeply impressed by the courage and conviction of these young leaders. The least that those of us who are older can do is provide financial support and follow their inspiring leadership on the front lines.
