Tonight at 8pm, ABC will air its second Secret Millionaire episode. It’s a show some call inspiring, and others (those, possibly, with an eye for self-reliant behavior) call just interesting.

I didn’t set out with a desire to create a post about a topic so dispiriting — so head-shakingly disgusting — to start off the week.

We live in one of the nation’s most idyllic towns — a small Southern Oregon jewel that is surrounded by some of nature’s greatest wonders.
