Computer Problems!!

Just leaving a note on my blog that I'm having computer problems at home.  I'm posting this from work and everyone knows that's not good work ethic.  Hope to be back soon posting on a regular basis.

Fernald Preserve Continued - Posted 10/21/11

At one time a uranium ore processing facility that served as the first link in America's nuclear weapon's production cycle.

The site's ongoing ecological restoration is being accomplished using native plants and grasses that were identified in an 1819 land survey of the area.  The Fernald Preserve contains 400 acres of woodlots, 327 acres of prairies, 140 acres of open water and wetlands, and 33 acres of savanna.
