"If there’s a world here in a hundred years, it’s going to be saved by tens of millions of little things. The powers-that-be can break up any big thing they want. They can corrupt it or co-opt it from the inside, or they can attack it from the outside. But what are they going to do about 10 million little things? They break up two of them, and three more like them spring up!"
- Pete Seeger, in YES! Magazine

Save a Stranger's Septic Hose

The project:
Flag down an RVer to lead them back to their wayward septic hose.

Time:
5 minutes max.

Why bother?
We were traveling home when the RV in front of us lost its sewer dump hose. The long, large, baby-blue hose accordioned out in front of us, then rolled off the side of the road. It seemed only natural to pull up beside them, wave them off the road, then give them the news.

Worth it?
Yes. They were surprised to have been waved down, and expressed their pure gratitude.
