Home in time for more snow by Barbara Edwards


So I’m excited about being home in my space again. I really missed have that special chair and desk where my best writing gets done.
So where do I start? Not back to my novel. First I need to write this blog then do a speech for my RWA chapter tomorrow.

So what else is exciting? It’s snowing again. Not that I saw much this winter. We were colder than normal in the Florida Panhandle but still warmer then Connecticut. 


And we only got snow once. The first in thirty-five years on St George’s Island. The cold did turn the water chilly and affected the turtles. We had three releases to return the poor cold stunned creatures to the Gulf.



The Blue Herons are back in their rookery despite the clear burn that was done in December. And a young alligator is living in the pond next to the volunteer camping. 
One thing I noticed was the sparseness of shells on the beach. I think the cold affected them, too.

Please follow, friend or like me. I love to hear from my readers.

I'm late by Barbara Edwards

I know I’m late. Not only am I late, I accidentally posted this on another blog. Thanks Pam for the correction. This time I did forget but for a good reason. it’s been a busy month.
Sunset on St George Island
Not only have I been writing, I’ve been at St. George Island State Park, Florida. We are volunteers here.
It’s been an interesting month. On January 13th we helped with a sea turtle release.  A loggerhead turtle and 26 Kemps Ridley turtles. A fun time and I’m writing in more detail on my
Blue Heron nesting
blog.
We also have been involved in controlled burning. This method of preventing serious forest fires  Is being used more
Ranger starting controlled burn
and more across the nation. I have more photos scheduled for my blog, too.
