Another Green Monday: Earth Day Spokane 2011 Photos















|I took a lot of photos on Saturday with the Riverkeeper's camera. And what a day it was. I'll need some time to process the event before a full debrief but the weather was beautiful, the turnout was phenomenal, and there were mad props all around. I'm still buzzing. After the jump, check out more.

Best. Earth. Day. Ever.
