A Journal to impart knowledge and facts
July 22, 2015

I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done.

I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them.

I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC.

The corporation of the Aboriginal people does environmental impact assessments of all the lands they control. There are 3 tribes living in Moreton Bay. They refer to themselves as people of the Sand and Water. The tribes have lived on the Islands for more than 25,000 years. The aboriginal culture is over 60,000 years old. (I'm awed!) The Quandamooka People own the native rights to Straddie Island.


Here, winter is the main subject. The first storm hit. We plowed and shoveled out. The second storm hit the very night we plowed out. So, we moved snow with plow and shovel again. Now, we are having a break with another lake-effect snow watch for the end of this week. I hope spring is early in 2017.
