Inspired by the City Repair projects in Portland and elsewhere, I want to organize our neighbors to repair the intersection nearest our house. Paint the intersection itself, build a bench facing the intersection, build on the existing mosaic, etc. It would really add pizzaz to our neigborhood and slow down the speeders, too.

I want to build a cob bench on the corner of our lot. It would be fun to build, get neighbors involved, and make our house (and street) a friendlier place to live.
I’d like to learn to play the trombone. I can play it at a various amateurish level and it would be great to do more
