To answer your question Janusz about the Everglades
The Florida Everglades are subtropical marshland located in the southern portion of the U.S. state of Florida, specifically in parts of Monroe, Collier, Palm Beach, Miami-Dade, and Broward counties.
Though much modified by agricultural development in central and southern Florida, the Everglades is the southern half of a large watershed arising in the vicinity of Orlando known as the Kissimmee River system. The Kissimmee flows from Taylor Creek, Nubbin Slough, and Fisheating Creek, and discharges into Lake Okeechobee, a very large (730 mi² or 1,890 km²), shallow (10 ft or 3 m) fresh water lake. Water leaving Lake Okeechobee in the wet season forms the Everglades, a shallow, slow-moving flood at one time 40 miles (60 km) wide and over 100 miles (160 km) long moving southward across a nearly flat limestone shelf to Florida Bay at the southern end of the state.

So an Everglades fire is a fire in the Everglades.
The jewellery is going good. I have made it into a style of my own now and I am now making rings for people by request. I finished Diem's ring and it looks great.
I didn't have Chemistry is the morning today, because Mr C had to be elsewhere. Anyway, I played 13 in the morning and shuffled the cards for ten minutes straight waiting for people to show up, so by the time they came they were so well shuffled that it was to my advantage and I won three times in a row (and I swear I didn't sabotage the cards).
English was spent with us annotating images of Sci-Fi and Mystery genre movie posters.
In Art, we continued making our rings and we went on to make seconds. Three MLC teachers came to spend time in our class to have a meeting in which they were discussing something about subjects but I wasn't really paying much attention to them.
In Applicable we did maths work.
In careers I studied for my Human Biology In-Class Assignment and then continued to finish of the ring I was making.
At lunch, we played 13.
In the first Human Biology period we studying for the Assignment and then in the second we did the test, which wasn't too bad, but I did need the book for quite a bit of it.
When I was waiting at the bus stop to go home, I noticed that the copper rings that I have been making had oxidised and had left a green residue on my fingers and to the people I am making the rings for, don't worry. I make my rings out of a different material and they don't oxidise.
I watched two more episodes of CSI: Miami, which totals to sixteen episodes I have watched so far.
Thanks for the comments everyone and I hope you will continue to read my blogs.
Signing off.

Reading about the rings oxidising reminded me of the statue of liberty. I thought the stuff you made your rings from at home was copper. I must admit, Im looking forward to seeing them, with their bigness, not that there's anything wrong with big rings it's just that, they're big and very pretty ^^ Wonder if you can guess who left this message
