Sanibel's Snowy Plover 2013 Nesting Season

Sanibel's Snowy Plover nesting season officially began Feb 15.  These tiny shore birds are endangered and everyone going to our beaches, should take the time to read rules that will help protect them.  These birds are so small that you have to look carefully or you will not see them.  Rules and information, along with photos can be found on Sanibel Captiva Conservation Foundation  website.

HAPPY VALENTINE DAY

EVERYONE!

Yes, I'm still alive. :)

Thanks to all of you who sent emails, comments, etc.

I've just been resting up from all the holiday preparations and then guests for Thanksgiving; more preparing and visitors for 3 weeks during Christmas and New Year's Eve. 
It was a wonderful time!

After the holidays I was busy putting the house back in order. Then a couple weeks after that, I got sick.

Now, we are excited because we have more visitors coming in a couple of weeks.  The first group for 10 days and the same day they leave, two more will be coming for 10 days. We are excited and can hardly wait! 

Now you know why I haven't been blogging.  It may be a
little longer before I get back to it, but I do plan on it.

I hope all of you are doing well, and have some fun plans for Spring Break.

Shore Haven, House Boat or Mobile Home?

After floating on the water, like a huge house boat yesterday, Shore Haven is waiting for the next leg of it's journey, on Tuesday.

This is Shore Haven's destination.

 The Caretaker's Cottage awaits.

I'm happy to know that I was not the only person who thought moving the Shore Haven house was interesting. Saw it on Channel 2 News last night and today

there is a very informative story about Shore Haven, present and past, in the News Press.
