Work Trip (AFF) - Tree Farmer National Leadership Conference, Savannah, GA - February 2014

If you read my earlier post, you will understand how embarrassing this is....

I am writing this on January 1, 2017 but I am posting pictures from February of 2014.  These pictures are from my first work trip with the American Forest Foundation (AFF). I was recruited from Keep America Beautiful to AFF to do behavior change campaigns with rural woodland owners. One of the programs that AFF facilitates is the American Tree Farm System. Each year the Tree Farm System puts on a conference. In 2014 it was held in Savannah, GA. Owen came down after the conference and we spent some time in Savannah and Tybee Island.

On our way out of town to Tybee Island we stopped at Savannah State University.
They were over achievers with 2 towers.

It was only fitting that we saw an old water tower that was part of a wood supply company.
Showing how wood in the south is an important economy.

Tybee Island with a bunch of recycling carts below. Fitting.

We took a beautiful boat ride out into the Atlantic on the one nice day we got. 

The poor Tybee Island Lighthouse had just gotten a new paint job when multiple days of rain hit.
The streaking was the talk of the town when we were there. See the water tower way back there?
