In the beginning


Now for a brief introduction:

Why Dancing-Turtle Knits you may ask? Honestly?TurtleKnits was already taken! :) The dancing part is because hubby and I started taking ballroom dance lessons a year ago, and are training for an amateur competition.

Knits should be pretty self explanatory. I knit, obsessively. Along with knitting comes the obligatory stash and large book collection. 

Turtle is a lot more personal. Two years ago, hubby and I went on a cruise. One of the destinations was Grand Cayman. While on Grand Cayman, we stopped at the Turtle Farm.  I took one look at those turtles and I was in love. A little ironic considering hubby talked me into going to the farm. Before the end of the trip, hubby and I decided I HAD TO go back to school and work with these majestic creatures.  Originally, I was not sure where I was headed with the “turtle thing” as hubby calls it. After doing research for an English paper I am headed full-throttle towards conservation. Being a 30-ish student is definetly a challenge, but I am driven by something even I don’t fully understand. Hubby says I have found my calling and that I am lucky: many people never find what they were meant to do. I believe him, so onwards into years of school I go.

This blog is meant as a place to chronicle my experiences with my three loves: dancing, sea turtles (or more correctly, my education), and knitting. Enjoy!

  Well, I finally gave in to temptation and started my own blog! I have a little confesion to make: I really haven’t read many blogs. So, being basically a blog virgin, I am making it up as I go along. Hopefully this little venture doesn’t, well… suck.
