Medical Friendly Shelter Full Scale Exercise 2018
The City held a full-scale exercise of the Medically Friendly Shelter (MFS) designed to establish a learning environment for participants to exercise their MFS operational plans.
The exercise served as a practical walk through of planning, operational coordination, operational communication, logistics and supply chain management, public health, healthcare, and emergency medical services
The MFS is only activated for a Category 2 or greater hurricane or as directed by the City Manager. The MFS is for people who, during periods of evacuation or emergency, require sheltering assistance due to physical, mental or cognitive impairment, or a sensory disability that exceeds the basic level of care provided at a general population shelter, but does not require the level of care provided at a skilled medical facility. This includes help with administering medication, personal hygiene assistance with activities of daily living (washing, dressing and eating).

And landing . . . . and not running into each other . . . . and other things.
In my excitement and haste yesterday to post a photo commemorating my wonderful morning, I failed to mention that at least 3 of the Great Blue Herons I spent over an hour with were Youngsters. Of course, I wasn't sure at the time, having never been anywhere near close to GBH ever -- but I thought the 2 that landed right by my car and didn't fly away even when I exited, might be. My experience with these guys in this wild part of the world has always been that they are extremely skittish around the very few humans they come in contact with. Even Tyler, one of the Rangers, who is as avid a bird photographer as me, and around the Lake 40 hours a week, could not believe I was lucky enough the night before to have caught TWO of the big birds in the same photo.
I just don't know how to explain how I feel about this 3 mile stretch of wild land --- the West River Trail ---- and some of the experiences I have been gifted with this Summer, in my endeavors to learn more and more about it's ecosystem. Yes, it did start with my fascination with the pair of Bald Eagles nesting just 2 miles "up river" from my home. My adventurous Summer began on April 2 --- at 10:37 am -- when driving up Route 30, the male Baldy was sitting high up in a tree right along side the road. It was like he was the "Pied Piper" appearing out of nowhere --- and I've been following and dancing to his music ever since.
got guitar for his birthday present.

Glad I did a practice - I shredded the wool on one side trying to open it. Now I know to be super extra careful on the real thing!

This year I will focus mostly on oolongs, which by me ar the most difficult to brew. I am practicing with two taiwanese oolongs befor emerging in the samples I have prepared.
It defenitly takes some practice to graps oolongs at their best.

The Crown forces had 10 blinds including dummies to begin the game (along with 2 ambush cards). Jim elected to bring them in from all sides which meant that his actions were not very coordinated and rather disjointed. Worked out well for a night game. The Freedmen are coming along the beach and the 3 groups of Light troops are in the center.
