I discovered a very helpful travel app called Forever Map 2 that combines maps from around the world with a destination's information.
If you're traveling abroad and don't have internet, before you leave go to app, search destination, and download information to your phone or iPad.

Better than shopping locally is making your own food. I sprout broccloi and alfalfa sprouts in my kitchen, while Martha Stewart creates a flower and vegetable garden complete with those needed (and disappearing!) bees! If you'd like to ensure pollination of your "food" garden, you can check out the July/August issue of Martha Stewart Living to learn tips to maintaining a bee hive.
Be safe!

Trees are wonderful! Trees absorb carbon dioxide, exhale oxygen, provide habitat for species, shade people, animals and birds, including nesting grounds, and I'm happy to share America’s largest fundraiser for tree research, the STIHL Tour des Trees to benefit
the TREE Fund, will travel through the U.S. and Canada July 28 to August
3, 2013!
The weeklong event will include tree plantings, educational programs and community engagement activities in addition to a week of unforgettable cycling and camaraderie.
The STIHL Tour des Trees unites tree and cycling enthusiasts to raise funds for tree research and education while cycling 500 miles, educating the public about the needs of urban trees and planting dozens more along the way. Cyclists will travel a 500-plus mile route originating in Niagara Falls, circling Lake Ontario through upstate New York and arriving in Toronto a week later. The cyclists will stop in Rochester, Syracuse and Watertown in New York, then head westward through Ontario via scenic Prince Edward County, Trenton and Oshawa to their final destination at Toronto Island.
Each cyclist on the full Tour commits to raising $3,500 for the Tree Research & Education Endowment Fund (TREE Fund).
