I have said, suggested and inspired that you have “pointless style weekends” of doing things, not too much work, … And weekends, in fact, do not count, unless you spend them this way…

But what about the last one, which brought us a combination of fun, see old friends again and at the same time, being environmentally friendly…?

Arriving in Houston. A lot of creativity in the pedestrian.

The three above were my favorites.

It hurts when one breaks down, because behind the scenes, we visited each team, all university students. This one won the award for perseverance in the face of adversity.

Eco 1
