No luck with Habitat today because they are participating in the Friday of Goodness. And I totally had Humane Society written up here earlier, meaning to write Habitat for Humanity, but I must have had the little furry ones on my mind as well. I happened to ride by the dog park while I was out and about. There were lots of happy pups making their rounds, but what really caught my eye was the guys that were planting trees out there. Made my little treehugger heart smile! During my outing adventure I also ran into this store that I have been wanting to cruz through called Jeffersons. I met a very nice lady upstairs as part of her and her daughter's interior design company called Coastal Fog. She introduced me to the restaurant that was within the building, Copper and Vine (check out their facebook page), where I enjoyed a salad featuring their honey-lemon vinaigrette. Delectable! I would have had no idea it was there, but met the young owner sitting at the bar that went to ECU for political science and whom decided to open a fine dining restaurant featuring an extensive menu of wines which she is quite knowledgeable of. I found out that Thursdays are their half-bottle of wine days. This is perfect because I have been wanting to learn more about wines and it seems like a great place to do that with a few friends. I feel that is an important part of Earth Day too, is supporting local businesses. They will see me back there! Now back to painting and music!
