The Harbor Islands

While we didn't make it to the Harbor Islands this week, I wanted to add a slide show of a trip we made a few weeks ago. Enjoy!

I'm glad we've joined in blogworld! When I first read the title of your blog I was taken to a story I heard in college and thought that is why you chose the theme of starfish. It turns out you chose a different reason but the story is still appropriate:

Once a man was walking along a beach. The sun was shining and it was a beautiful day. Off in the distance he could see a person going back and forth between the surf's edge and and the beach. Back and forth this person went. As the man approached he could see that there were hundreds of starfish stranded on the sand as the result of the natural action of the tide.

The man was stuck by the the apparent futility of the task. There were far too many starfish. Many of them were sure to perish. As he approached, the person continued the task of picking up starfish one by one and throwing them into the surf.

As he came up to the person he said, "You must be crazy. There are thousands of miles of beach covered with starfish. You can't possibly make a difference." The person looked at the man. He then stooped down and pick up one more starfish and threw it back into the ocean. He turned back to the man and said, "It sure made a difference to that one!"
