There is much to be thankful for this year in the beaver world. It has been one of the best years to support flat-tails we have ever known. Let me just give a shortlist of reminders before start the day with friends and family.
I’m thankful that this may our story and beavers appeared in the National Wildlife Federation’s “Ranger Rick Magazine” where they could be seen by children all over the country and beyond. We were so lucky for Suzi Eszterhas photos with our beavers. Happy Thanksgiving, Suzi!
The very next month Ben’s book was published and the beaver world has never been the same since.I’m so grateful that we got to be part of that story and part of the brilliant torch that got passed forward on this journey. Happy Thanksgiving, Ben.
Our beaver festival was held in a new park for the first time, and graced with the amazingly generous artwork of Amy G. Hall who gave two days of intensive labor to create this. Happy Thanksgiving, Amy.
What a year. And thanks to you all for making it happen.
A final somber wish for the day goes to the peace and recovery of our friends and neighbors in Paradise. Remember them today in your warm homes with all your loved one gathered because they are reminding us all what it means to be thankful for what you have left even after unthinkable tragedy when we keep listening for the still, small voice.
And after the earthquake a fire; but the lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
