I was always amazed to see them bring in their traps the first day of the season. I couldn't believe they could travel with that huge stack of crab traps on their boats. <br /><br />Happy Thanksgiving. I'll have to go see if you went to Cumberland Island.

I always think that they would take better care of the lakes and rivers where they fish so that the fish population could stay healthy. I think they are uncaring morons! It makes me sick to see the trash and the Styrofoam bait cups. And the fishing line is so hazardous to fish and birds. Makes me fume!<br /><br />Love the picture of the Roseate Spoonbill. So beautiful!<br />SKP Hugs,<br />Karen Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03706520756162666852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-11407731420092082842013-11-23T20:39:11.557-06:002013-11-23T20:39:11.557-06:00I tried to mail the book to you in Winnie, TX but ...I tried to mail the book to you in Winnie, TX but my post-office person couldn't find a zip code.

Here at Siuslaw we get a chance to litter pick amid a variety of other little jobs that fill the day. I guess that's ZEN for the ADD or ADHD among us ??? I must just have a short attention span.<br /><br />A little bathroom scrub here, a little leaf blow there, here a weed sack, there a brush hack, everywhere some litter. Olde Volunteers, we have our jobs, E, Eiy, E Eiy Oh!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Peter<br />A retired photographer looks at life from behind an RV steering wheel.<br /><a href="http://ppazucha.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">Life Unscripted</a><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-12217779480731171612013-11-21T23:17:18.726-06:002013-11-21T23:17:18.726-06:00Ohhhh... poetry in motion!Ohhhh... poetry in motion!Nickie and Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11566506168550004304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-83324705605640638352013-11-21T22:18:22.944-06:002013-11-21T22:18:22.944-06:00Your contributions to their book will be amazing. ...Your contributions to their book will be amazing.

And as we know fishing line is a real killer to birds and other aquatic things.

Oh, and a cup of frozen spinach. Can't taste the spinach at all. (Supposed to use fresh baby spinach). Congrats on being asked to write and submit photos for the book.
