Common Ground has been busy on Facebook and around town, as you can plainly see by all the lush planters and pocket gardens showing off for Cheese Days (and beyond).

And from the Washington State-based Northwest Justice Project, a link to this article in The Atlantic (relevant here, too) on how lack of a driver’s license puts job seekers at a steep disadvantage. NW Justice Project provides free and low-cost legal assistance on a broad range of topics. Website link here. On Facebook here.

Reruns: usually I provide this link on going paperless in January, but recently got a request to publish it once more. From an earlier blog: How I Got Rid Of 4 Filing Cabinets (& All My Bookcases).
