Like aTurkey with its Head Cut Off

I had quite the busy week!  Between Laurens birthday weekend (dinner and beach time) and Thanksgiving festivities I had to work and host a German intern from the Discovery Bay Marine Lab.

And Done!

I went up to rainy Shirley Castle and met with some farmers to setup some work days this next week for reforestation and grass planting.  We also delivered some grass, and chatting with farmers. I also hooked Theresa (the German) up with some fishermen and showed her the fishing beaches in town so she could get some more information on local Lion fish.  I also found time to head to Boston to assist Lauren in digging up a garden for their community center.

I got two Thanksgivings this year!  On Thursday the Pitts hosted a family style Thanksgiving including TURKEY, and all of the fixings and pumpkin pie!!  I also experimented with making Sorrel juice for the first time that was super easy- and GREAT!!  Its also wonderful when mixed with red wine!!  I then headed to Kingston for meetings and had the opportunity to see more volunteers and staff members for a holiday potluck.  I still feel tired from soo much food and fun!
