18. Seattleite obsesses over some Seattle light

Last friday was just one of those days where the weather made everything a little better.  The lighting was phenomenal!  Just warm, golden rays all over the place and all over my face.  It was great.

Cherry Fairies

I think I've done way too many daily posts about or relating to cherry blossoms already, so this is just going to be a separate entry.  It's definitely adorable enough to stand on its own!

In the spring, The Quad attracts a myriad of visitors to campus every year, but the most welcomed guests undoubtedly have to be the cherry blossom fairies.  They jovially frolic amongst the flowering branches while tending to each tree's special needs.

(Yes, I got their parent's permission before I took and posted these photos.)

15. Trash talk

The annual Trash-In took place in Red Square a couple of days ago. UW students, faculty, and staff volunteered to sort out trash from buildings on campus that could have been recycled.  Under a huge white tent laid piles of stuffed trash bags, and the volunteers divided themselves into groups to sort out the good stuff from the bad stuff. What a great event.  It reminded me that anyone can do their small part to make a big difference.  It really doesn't take that much more effort or time to sort your trash before you throw it away.  Create a compost bin, reuse items, take only what you need because you can always come back and get more.  I'd like to think the little things add up.
