A Fish Connection

As I'm pulling out of my parking space at Amazing Grace when I guy pulls up beside me and starts motioning for me to roll down the window. I've become somewhat used to random strangers engaging me in conversation about the car but it turns out this individual fries fish at a local market and would like for us to recycle his WVO. Presently we have a glut of oil but I'm hesitant to refuse any supplier in case our other sources go out of business or change management or decide to dispose of their oil by other means so I hand him one of our cards, take down his phone number and tell him Craig will be in contact shortly.

Road Trip

The scenery is a huge benefit of our odyssey. Driving through the mountains of West Virginia I am reminded of similar trips with my family when I was much younger and my mother would encourage us look out the windows of the RV instead of wasting our afternoons napping. How can anyone not be a "tree hugger" after exposure to our country's splendid vistas. Waste vegetable oil (WVO) is the only carbon neutral fuel available to us at this time and our determination to utilize less crude oil by substituting an alternative fuel source is a small step toward reducing our carbon footprint.
