Earth Day Train Ride

After my first Texas race on Saturday, we hopped the TRE train and DART to Dallas for an Earth Day Festival. Nigel had a blast on the trains. It was a fun, cheap way (free public transpo is a job perk for Tim, Nigel was free and my pass was only $8) for us to get to the "Big, big city."

The festival was a bit lame, though. More sales pitch (think windows, cars, etc.), less tree hugging. Nigel did get to plant a pumpkin seed in a pot and take it home, though, and we learned about recycling spots for electronics and light bulbs around DFW. There were also yoga classes and speakers, but those aren't exactly family friendly things.
