Mason Jar for Baby with BPA free Drink Unit $13.00 at IowaFarmLifeDreams

Back in the day of grandma and grandpa baby bottles were glass, and easy to sterilize. You would never heard of plastic milk bottles. Unfortunately over time chemicals used in plastic baby bottles could contain harm to baby.  Why would you stick harmful things in baby's mouth? This idea using a mason jar and cap with BPA free drink unit is an idea for toddlers...at Iowa Farm Life Dreams.  Maybe growing up on the farm means mason jars aren't just used for ice tea anymore.

Rainbow Wind Chime @DragonflyDreams1

So we wait for the sun to appear.  All this rain makes for dreary weather. Yawning at work and wishing we were somewhere else.  Just like magic, after the rain clears, we wait for the rainbow.

FACT:  Did you know, the US U.S. consumes the most global resources. We use 19+ million barrels of oil in a single day. Since 1990, greenhouse gas emissions have risen 11%. These same gases are what cause global warming. We need to make a change now. It's time to use renewable energy sources, such as solar power.

Switching to Solar Power

Solar energy provides a renewable source of energy and was first "discovered" or "invented" by Frank Shuman in 1897.  Today, many advancements make it not only affordable to have solar energy powering your home, or business.  Once debuted at a costly initial investment alternative to monopolized energy companies,  it is now easy and affordable to make the switch to solar.

Old Solar Panels make this table interesting at Heritage Wood Company.

Living "off the grid" is making solar panels more popular than ever, so is easy financing plans where it is affordable that you can convert or add solar power to your life at a fraction of the cost.  A big problem is misunderstanding or being overwhelmed with where to start, and most people just don't know what company to select.

According to See.Solar , people switch to solar power every three minutes. Solar City has made it possible to figure out plans in your state and area to help you make the switch easy! What a great way to live green. Watch this video to see what you need to do for solar power.
