A New Project!

Yes, you see lots of bottles and cans. I have caught the recycling bug. Actually, I have been recycling for years and using reusable grocery bags for 17 years, but I have never turned bottles in for money. My dear friend Julie has been doing this for 2 plus years and I always gave her my bottles. Her family started doing it to save money for a trip they were taking to Texas (lots of gas money needed). Last year they saved for a missions trip to Zimbabwe and this year it is another trip to Texas.

Julie and her family are serious about this and have a goal of $25 a week (that's 500 bottles and cans)-that is a lot. Some weeks they have less and many weeks they make more. I don't know how well we will do, but Dan and I want to save for a trip. Our 10 year anniversary is in three years and we would really love to go to Hawaii together- so we have 3 years to collect recycling money and put any extra monies aside for our little adventure.

If you want to save your cans and bottles and give them to us- we would sure appreciate it!!
