thanksgiving and treasured places

Thanks Kristin for you heartfelt acknowledgement and thank you's for my support. It is my pleasusre to become involved with this wonderful group of people who , like me, care about our environment. Anything that I can do to help your cause, just let me know. I am new to the computer world, and having access to the internet has been truly inspiring for me. I can contribute my support to all of the environmental causes and maybe make a difference. There are so many places I'd love to visit, and places that I've seen for myself. The first time I saw the Rocky Mountains, it took my breath away. I flew to colorado Springs at night, so imagine my surprise that morning I walked outside. The sky was pitch black from a storm front passing through. And those huge mountains against that ominous sky... well I'd never been moved to tears by my surroundings until that day in July of 1981. I hope to get to see them once again. But we do have great State Parks here in Maryland. I live in Southwest
Baltimore, but I watched a red-tailed hawk a couple of mornings ago, he was huge and just as regal and contented. Earnestly sitting in my neighbor's huge, old, oak tree, with a pair of crows screaming at him to leave. Through my binoculars I could see that imposing beak, and see his eyes dart back and forth, scanning the ground for his breakfast. Really neat considering downtown Baltimore just a few blocks away. I adore nature, anyway, anywhere, anyhow. I look forward to seeing all these beautiful places I just read about from this one emailing. May they remain untouched and protected through the efforts of people like you and now someone like me who can actually help the cause. Happy Thanksgiving to you and all my new internet friends. Together, we can and will make a difference.
