Happy Earth Day!

Hello Friends,

 I love the earth, if we didn't have it, where would we live.  As most of you know, I live on the Chesapeake Bay and we are lucky enough to keep a boat in the harbor right down the street from our house.  I have noticed that these fishermen come back from their fishing trips and they just throw their trash on the ground!  I don't know when this became acceptable behavior.  How can they fish all day on that beautiful bay and then come back into harbor and trash it?  Don't they realize that the trash they throw on the ground is going to end up in the bay and in the fish they are trying to catch?  It makes me so sad.  What ever happened to Hootie the Owl?  Give a Hoot, Don't Pollute....are children still being taught that in school?  I want to ask them, "What makes you so important and your life so valuable that you can't walk over to the trash can and throw your trash away?" Do they have children?  Grandchildren?  Do they care about the Earth they are leaving behind?  Anyway, those are my thoughts on this Earth Day.

 Here is my card

    I couldn't agree with you more! It makes me so angry to see litter. We have the same problem in the Finger Lakes in NY.

    I feel the same way about people that litter. It angers me so much. I hate driving down a road that is covered in trash. Have a wonderful evening my friend :)

    That's awful! I can't stand when I drive through my neighborhood and see a Mcdonald's bag in the street. Who would have the nerve to open the window and chuck it out? People are CRAZY!!

    Your card is super cute!

    Hi there, it makes me mad to see people just dump their rubbish anywhere as well.

    Fab card and sentiment.

    Hi Chriss - love the Earthday Digital stamp - and you are so right about people that trash the earth - it is so sad - one can see people throwing items out of there cars on the highway and such as well - so very sad. Enjoy your day and do the happy dance ~ Gail~
