I spent part of the Labor Day weekend in Reno, Nevada, where I was really impressed by the results of its ambitious Truckee River Project. Restoring the gorgeous river that runs through this otherwise quite ordinary town was one of the best things they could have done to improve their civic health, sense of style, and attractiveness as a place to live.
I saw a very wee little boy with an expression of absolute bliss on his face as he paddled out up to his knees in the shallow rapids, while a little further out a group of kayakers frolicked in a deeper bit with friends who were swimming &/or tubing there.
