Lincoln City helps travelers lighten carbon footprint...

... just got word (people tell me things you know), that Lincoln City (featured in the September issue of CTOL) is installing six electric vehicle charging stations next month. If that isn't thinking of the travelers needs I don't know what is.

This Gateway unit will have cell phone interface with Coulomb Network at a cost to customers for only $3 per charge and the city is picking up the monthly activation fee. Just think about it. While you get your soul charged up by being at the ocean, your electric car can get charged up too. Wow and kudos. There are going to be smaller carbon footprints in Lincoln City. Reminds me of one of my favorite carbon footprint poems:

"Mary had a little lamb
It's fleece was black as soot
And everywhere that Mary went
It's sooty foot it put!" - author unknown

Well that's the news for now,

  1. As a working girl, I LOL'd at your poem about Miss Mary. Those darn lambs ARE a handful and messy too.

    Sometimes for fun my sis and me herd crows on our lawn. (Hint: I think you and I have a mutual friend)

  2. Ha ha - I've heard about your crow herding. I'm sure those crows feet leave sooty little footprints too. Keep it up so you'll stay in practice. Maybe a day will come that our mutual friend will get you something wooly to herd. I've seen how you guys do it. Its cool./Luv, Sissy
