Doing More with Less

Seems like we all have less time, energy and resources to accomplish an ever-growing and challenging list of items on our "to-do" lists. So how do we do more with less? By collaborating with others to the benefit of all. By looking for creative ways to accomplish multiple goals, we can each get more done faster, cheaper and generally have more fun in the process.

Perspective Prospectus

Nobody seems to be talking about the "light at the end of the tunnel" because few (anyone?) can even imagine it down the line... With joblessness, homelessness, world-wide poverty, crime, layoffs, bankruptcies, 12-figure debt, and political finger-pointing making the headlines every day, it's hard to imagine when things will take a maintainable upswing...

Where the BUZZ be found!

Sundays at Carmichael Park
Some of us may remember a time when the TOWN SQUARE was the hub of the community. (For those of us who are not personally familiar, we may have seen movies like Back to the Future or The Music Man - NOT Hollywood fiction!) It was where the community would gather to discuss local happenings and politics, hand out flyers for events or causes, and get to know your neighbors.
