Our time here at Goose Island State Park is winding down
quickly. In addition to four bird walks a
week, we also offered two Jr. Ranger programs on Saturdays. Although most of the Jr. Ranger programs were
not very well attended, our December “Make a Christmas Ornament” program tended
to bring in a pretty good crowd.
Several of the parents would make their own special ornament too.
First you start with a clear, plastic ornament. Then you add sand. This is native sand that Mark and I picked up
at Rockport beach. Next you add little
shells and sea glass (non-native, these where in a box for our use). Then you replace the top plug and write
whatever you want on the outside with our gold or silver paint pens.
That’s all it takes to make a beautiful Goose Island
State Park Christmas ornament!

Love how you two go above and beyond your designated tasks!
