NAVIGATING THE WILDERNESS, AVOIDING PREDATORS URBAN AND RURAL
|
|
This article from The Washington Post hit me pretty hard yesterday. I am lucky to have had the chance to get to know Don'Zeal (pictured above) through my time volunteering at Horton's Kids as he and the young man I tutor, Dion, are best friends. My wife worked for City Kids for many years and I have been lucky enough to travel to Jackson Hole, Wyoming with her for City Kids programming. These are both great D.C-based organizations (that I would be happy to chat about if you are interested in getting involved).
It's hard for me to imagine that being out alone in the Wyoming wilderness (and apparently sliding down a muddy slope inside a flooding tent) is less scary and safer than walking around your own neighborhood alone but for these kids that is their reality. Camping in the wild can change your life whether you are escaping something or finding yourself.

D.C-BASED WOOD-FIRED BAKERY
|
|
One of my favorite things in the world is a wood-fired oven. One of my other favorite things in the world is a chocolate croissant. So of course I fanboy all over the place when someone is crazy enough to combine those two things. That's why I loved walking down to Seylou Bakery & Mill when I lived in D.C. to grab some delicious wood-fired breakfast treats. I liked this place so much that I even convinced them to teach a private baking class for my mom for Mother's Day a few years back. One of the coolest things she learned in that class was that the head baker buys crops from his wheat farmers that he doesn't even use in his cooking just so that those farmers can continue to maintain the right soil composition to grow these heirloom wheat varieties that he does use in his bread. Now that is what I call supporting local farming.
