Dear Friends,

Technology, machinery, media and commercialism have rapidly overpowered and in many cases severed our connection to the natural world around us. Most of us spend our days indoors, in schools, offices, homes and cars, and many of us sit in front of computers several hours a day. Sadly for many of our children TV has become their source of education, their babysitter and parent. In light of that I wanted to design a simple but vibrant and colorful web site that might remind us of a larger world than our own, the wilderness and all of its creatures. Nature was here long before humans arrived and will go on in some form long after our passing. This wild world is "happening" all around us everyday while we often sit walled off from nature and her exquisite beauty. I hope this site will spark a protective kinship for our fellow beings and a hunger to be a caring and integral part of their world. Please share this site with your children, and even more importantly give them the real thing. Take time to show them where they come from, where we all come from - Mother Nature.

I sincerely wish for you a safe world, good health, kind people, warmth when you are cold, food when you are hungry, and fulfilled dreams. If we have even a portion of these blessings then we are truly fortunate. Their are many in the world who live on the edge of life; to them we must send our prayers and do what we can to help.

With Compassion,
Robin
