Greening Your Roof

Filed under: general — bdparker @ 9:09 am

Green RoofMan, I really want to do this. I suppose I’d have to have a roof first. Then there’s the problem of getting the lawn tractor up there.

Time for an update

Filed under: general — bdparker @ 1:04 pm

I’ve been pretty preoccupied with preparing for my upcoming move lately. I’ve been painting, hanging shelves, cleaning, and carrying a few odds and ends every time I ride the elevator up.
Speaking of riding the elevator, I think I’m going to really like living in the high-rise. It’ll give me more chance to meet the people around me. I’ve already talked to several of my neighbors, mainly during the minutes of close confinement on one of the lifts.
The summer season of lawn movies is over, and it’s a steady 64 degrees throughout our office building. I really need to make some kind of a change so I don’t feel like summer just completely blew by. This Sterling office with the frigid air, lack of windows, and the hour-long commute is really starting to get to me. At least I’ve been able to listen to a few good audio books during my drive.

Screen on the Green

Filed under: general — bdparker @ 2:14 pm

If you’re reading my blog, you’ve probably gotten an invitation to Screen on the Green from me this summer. If not, consider this your invitation. Sorry it’s a little late, but it’s not over. This outdoor film festival held on the National Mall is probably my favorite part of living near DC.
Tonight we’re going to see the Humphry Bogart classic film To Have and Have Not. Next Monday, Rocky.
If you show up between 6:30 and 8:30, you’ll find our little group gathered under the inflatable palm tree, probably eating cheese and crackers. You might find Herbert and I playing frisbee somewhere along the edge of the Mall.
Here are some pictures from the past few weeks. Thanks for providing these, Rachel!
