"Unless someone like you cares a whole lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not."
---Dr. Seuss in The Lorax
Today's project was so enjoyable mostly because I did it with friends. It was a MoverMoms project in which we headed out to a farm in Leesburg, Virginia for the privilege of getting on our hands and knees to pick the apples that had already fallen from the ground.
Doesn't sound fun? Well it was, totally. The weather was great, we felt like we were doing the work for a good cause (the apples would be donated to people without enough means for food), and I was there with two amazing women who shared my passion for helping out and had lots of interesting topics to discuss.
I like meeting new people, but it's less of a guarantee of a good time than if I volunteer with friends. Then again, this is an adventure, so I need to keep an open mind...
