It's been awhile...

Summer is finally upon us here in the Midwest with scorching heat, extreme heat advisories and a sad knowledge that our Pacific NW brothers and sisters still have yet to see the sun come out. But it's not all bad news! Following, find some great links and stories to lighten whatever burden you may be facing and remind you that there is more good news than bad, if you know where to look. Here's the latest from The Luna Sea Workshop!

A New super Hero team...and the kick ass ride they're sportin'

What's that you say? I must feed my baby in your bathroom? I must leave your establishment so my child can eat? Oh, no no no....Wrong answer! 


Meet The Milk Truck. A combination of guerilla theater, activism and a little slapstick humor it is the brainchild of Jill Miller - artist and faculty member in the School of Art at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. With funds from the kickstarter project up now, she and her team will buy a truck and put a giant boob on the roof. Yes, they plan to drive it around Pittsburgh for the duration of the biennial exhibition. And yes, there’s a reason for making The Milk Truck - to create a mobile breastfeeding unit that allows mothers to feed their babies in places where they have been discouraged - restaurants, shopping malls, public spaces, etc. Babies should be able to eat anywhere. And everywhere. For more info on the project, visit the website, to donate click here.
