Six hours round-trip...

Six hours round-trip and a nervous headache all day and all I can say is:  IT WAS WORTH IT.  😃

I met a bunch of people that I look forward to getting to know and work with and realized a dream that I've been pursuing for years.  I have officially joined the North Alabama Wildlife Rehabilitators.  I should receive my permit this week and then helping the native babies of Alabama will be a thing I can legally do.  I will have people I can call if I need help - and in turn I will be there for them as well.  It's an amazing group and I'm thrilled to be a part of it.

I've wanted this for so long that it feels like it's too good to be true.  I don't think it's gonna really sink in until I have my permit in my hands.  Then I will probably FREAK OUT in a fit of joy.  Stay tuned for that post.  😃 ❤

Also, go and like the NAWR page linked above.  They do wonderful things.  🙂
