But, we did have some down time. I was really tired so I decided to go up to my room and rest. If any of you know me, I am a news fanatic. I watch Fox News all the time. I consider it my obligation to know what is going on in my community and around the world, especially with elections coming up. Well, I vowed to myself I would not watch the news this weekend, as it has become an all-out war of the candidates, so I flipped the channels and found a program on National Geographic about "cane toads."
Here are some interesting things you may have not known about cane toads:"
*native to the Americas
*the venomous toad was brought to Queensland, Australia in the 1930s in an attempt to reduce destructive cane beetle population.
*weigh about 2.9 lbs. and are 4-6 in. long (huge suckers!)
*have enough venom in them to kill a small child
*are considered pests and government efforts to eradicate the toads

You are SO funny! Thank you for the info on the ole cane's. I will keep that in mind for years to come. As the saying goes...you learn something new every day...
On a much less important note, I bet the conference was neat. I love conferences. Learning new things and getting spoiled with nice hotels and delicious food...it's a little vaca!
LOL...I'll keep this in mind next time I go to Australia :) I heard you had quite a day including a speeding ticket :(
