Our nation has cast their collective eyes upon the tragedy by BP in our beautiful green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Many beaches around the Gulf coast have the black tar on their beaches and red spoltches in their waters. Resourcefulness abounds as many of these communities are not waiting for Federal or state assistance and attempt through various berns, boons, barricades, and hours of people power have taken up the fight to protect their homes, beaches, and livelyhoods. If it is not contained for another two months, then many estimates have hunders of thousands of gallons escaping from the bottom and comprimising our quiet and unpolluted enjoyment. Here, in Lee County, Florida we may yet escape realtively unaffected in many best case scenarios, and will forever be grateful if we are that lucky. I know we would much rather have SNOW on our beaches, than oil :) :)
