Save the Beaches

This oil spill has all of us on the Gulf in a tizzy! We're hoping it won't reach our beaches, and we're praying for Louisiana and Pennsecola. The beautiful ocean and the beaches are the reasons we moved here, that and the weather. There's something so peaceful about azure blue water and the snowy white feathers of sea birds.

I saw a pelican on TV covered in oily slime and my heart went out to it. I think this may be a wake up call for America. We should be drilling in other places where the potential for disaster is much less. It's fine to say "go green," but what do we do in the meantime? And so we wait. May they find a way to stop this disaster before the mangroves and wetlands are completely destroyed.
