This photo project should only be attempted if you are an adult, and it’s important to use all necessary safety precautions. This article is not meant to be a how-to, but more of a sneak peek as to how it was done.
I won’t bore you with all the camera details if you aren’t in to photography like I am, but I will fill you in on the secret.

If you woke up to a fire in your home, how much time do you think you would have to get to safety? According to the nonprofit National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), one-third of Americans households who made and estimate they thought they would have at least six minutes before a fire in their home would become life threatening. Unfortunately, the time available is often less.
That’s why OWL VFD is teaming up with NFPA during Fire Prevention Week, October 7-13, 2012, to urge residents to “Have Two Ways Out!” This year’s theme focuses on the importance of fire escape planning and practice.
St. Francis of Assisi Parish is the first house of worship in Virginia to enter this prestigious certification program.
Churches, synagogues, mosques and temples gain recognition as environmental leaders when they receive GreenFaith certification by carrying out more than two dozen environmental activities over two years.

When congregations complete the program, GreenFaith officially acknowledges them as religious-environmental leaders.

I have been working very hard during this long, hot summer researching the ice cream shops in and around our area.
Driving south on Interstate 95, I frequently exit at Woodbridge to take U.S. 1 due to traffic congestion. When I do this I’ve inevitably missed lunch and remember this just as I am with in view of Jo Jo’s Original Soft Serve in Dumfries. I’m sure you’d agree their medium soft serve cone is an acceptable lunch alternative in an emergency. I’ll give them an A-plus for location alone.
