I was running some errands with my wife one afternoon not too long ago when I felt the urge for an iced coffee. Sure I’d already had one that day, but whatever, it was my day off! We located a Starbucks close by and pulled into the parking lot.
That's when I realize that I didn't bring my mug. What a miserable discovery! Ever since I helped start this Mug Project thing I'm constantly being reminded that I am a green role model for so many others. But what about when no one's looking?

That's cool - thanks for bringing it up! I'm glad that your teachers feel that this is an important subject. You have this week off from school, huh? What are you going to do with yourself?
I don't know if I already told you this or not, but Katie and I will be in Vermont this coming weekend. Maybe I'll see you if you're around!

Sorry you can't make it. If you're up for it, we're encouraging people to give away a mug for Earth Day.
If this doesn't work out, stay tuned - lots of tree-hugging coming up in the near future...

Thought I could come on Saturday, but unfortunately something came up. Have fun though and I'll be at the next event. In the meantime, I've been talkin' up Mug Project (and carrying around my Nalegen)!!
Hope to see you soon.

Thanks for the help spreading the word! I already saw a few of the new members - Sydney and Zeke. Hey, I hope you'll think about giving someone else (like a teacher!) a mug on Earth Day.
Katie and I will be home to Vermont the weekend of April 26th. Maybe I'll see you then!
Peace,
Dan
