El Dia de los Muertos and Treasure Hunting

Spent the evening at the Bare Hands Gallery over on 21st avenue south celebrating the Mexican holiday that commemorates loved ones who have passed on through colorful art and dance.

Afterwards we went dumpster diving at Window World on University. We are beginning to scavenge the city for materials for the biointensive garden we are planning. Tonight's run yielded four 2x4's, a decent piece of plywood, a 3 ft. long 4x4, and two windows. That is some serious loot gain with relatively little work.

We hope to acquire most of the materials needed for upcoming projects in a similar fashion.
