Didn't know it was. Will have to think about. May have all lights out but tv on :)

See what's happening around the world - http://www.earthhour.org/live

I saw a note in the paper that one of our local United Churches is having a candlelight organ recital.

Doing my usual lights out and power down for an hour or so.  The airtight stove will be lit, so enough light from it....cosy.

8;30 - 9;30

 We're having a Sunday School sleepover at the church, so that hour will be dedicated to flashlight hide-and-seek!  Can't wait!

That sounds like squealing good fun Hilary!  

And I like gecko's also - a quiet reflective time ... do you still have lots of snow gecko?

You are a brave, brave woman, Hilary .

great image

(and I agree, sounds like a blast, hilary)

Hi Corolla:

Yes, snow banks are still very high although yesterday's rain resulted in more bare ground.

My garden and flower beds are under 3 feet of snow....but I'm hopeful.

Seems that hockey will be on at our house....

im gonna try to watch an endangered animal eat an endangered plant

sorry steven...

We left one light on in the office so that the kids who didn't want to play could hang out in there.  It was also a good way to have a set gathering place.  Very good fun!

It was 8:30 pm?  That would have been quite dangerous for us to turn off the lights for the entire hour.  Quite a bit of blowing snow on sections of the highway.

I didn't hear anything about Earth Hour until now :(

We lit lots of candles & played a game of Iota; then did soduko ... the quiet was so lovely.

No worries Sterton - you can have your own celebration tonight :-) 

Definitely!
