            I have to admit that when I was growing up, I thought places like this were where you went to get up close and personal with snakes and alligators, not something I was eager to do. But because I’ve long been interested in preserving the natural environment, I’ve learned the value of wetlands in that they harbor countless species of fish, birds, and other wildlife. They offer protection from storms, and reduce flooding and erosion.  In addition, given the influence of my friend and gifted artist, Karen Margulis, I now see the great beauty in wetlands.

            Hope there’s beauty in your weekend!
