Oliver's Visit
I can only think how proud and excited Jane and Albert would be, if they could have met Oliver, their first Great Grand-Child.
Grampa Willie introduces Oliver to Custard the Tortoise.

I know they would have loved this little guy, but their spirits live on and someday they will know him. He is almost as big as Custard. Enjoy! Love, Mom

I was very lucky to find this little piece of paradise back in 2002. We have 6 acres of land and 1000' frontage on the Willimantic River.
When I bought this property I was well aware I was buying into a flood zone, but I never dreamed this beautiful river would rise uplike itdid and cause so much damage as it did Oct 15, 2005.
Thanks to FEMA, The Town Of Mansfield, and The Connecticut Department of Emergency Management & Homeland Security, and Ron & Willie, we have flood proofed our home by raising it up above the Flood waters.
For easy access to our postings about the project, simply click the Flood Mitigation label below.
All of the wildlife pictures on this blog, have been taken here on our 6 acres. ( many by Jeanne)
Eventually, I hope to capture Every wild critter living here or just passing through our 6 acres.

What Is A Watershed ?
A watershed is the area of land where all of the water that is under it or drains off of it goes into the same place. John Wesley Powell, scientist geographer, put it best when he said that a watershed is: "that area of land, a bounded hydrologic system, within which all living things are inextricably linked by their common water course and where, as humans settled, simple logic demanded that they become part of a community." Watersheds come in all shapes and sizes. They cross county, state, and national boundaries. In the continental US, there are 2,110 watersheds; including Hawaii Alaska, and Puerto Rico, there are 2,267 watersheds. Source:http://www.epa.gov/owow/watershed/
