"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day
RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.
Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle

Trap #4 - the lucky one

Even though it was raining mixed with light snow and it was 36 degrees outside, we had a successful trap check. As we (just me and the girls tonight) approached the pond, we heard and saw two wood ducks and 1 mallard mixed with the sounds of a woodpecker banging against a tree. It was wonderful. All traps were empty except trap #4. It had one blue-spotted in it. Yeah!! Five total so far this year.








Ve and her mismatched gloves. Since she lost one and we only are in need of them occasionally now, I decided we would make do until next fall. I know, bad Mama!!! LOL
