We're going home!

Finally, we're moving home the end of the month. I can't wait.

I have a new camera, and will upload pictures after the move

I agree with this heartily

wow

been a bit since I've updated in here.

We moved, had to give up the dog, put the oldest cat to sleep and are in a tiny little apartment with no good views of anything.

Our lease will be up Nov. 1st, and I'm hoping we can MOVE out of this hellhole.

So no real pictures of anything interesting

Save Steve's Place

This is a direct link to the petition Russell Crowe spoke about on David Letterman.

Save Steve's Place

The Situation

The Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve (SIWR) is being threatened by strip mining. Cape Alumina Pty Ltd has lodged mining lease applications which include approximately 12,300 ha of the Reserve. Cape Alumina company documents indicate an intention to mine 50 plus million tons over a 10 year period commencing 2010. The greater part of this mine is on SIWR

The proposed area for mining on the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve contains the head waters of irreplaceable waterways and unique biodiversity which will not recover after mining operations are finished.

Be sure to sign the petition.
