Florahome USA Blog News
The latest from the Florahome Usa Blog is a mixture of sad news and Brad news. From the beginning, the BP oil disaster has read like a Hollywood script - greedy industrial giant ignors warnings inevitably wreaking havoc until unlikely hero finds the answer and saves the day. According to recent rumor, Brad Pitt already had a BP movie in the works, but that rumor has now been capped while the rupture in the gulf continues to wreak havoc. Florida and particularly the Pensacola area has seen determined beach goers suffering for all that determination as local officials, health officials and a lot of other officials can't decide just how safe it is to go in the water. Whether you live here in Florahome, Florida or elsewhere in the USA, there's a good chance you've seen a disaster in one form or another and can feel for those suffering from this one. You also know the help and prayers of others can be a great comfort and are very much appreciated. They are and Thank you. How this will all play out is still unknown but even now there's talk of options that sound so much like one of those Hollywood disaster flicks it's truely scarey. This Florahome USA blog can only echo the voices of all in the gulf region and ask that you all please - KEEP PRAYING!

Florahome USA Blog
The Florahome USA blog has maybe found a little good news about Florida for a change. Tomorrow's opening day for the new Wizarding World of Harry Potter attraction at Orlando's Universal Studios theme park and with its investment of over $200 million and a legion of Harry Potter fans, it's a much needed brightspot in Florida's gloomy news of late. If one British production company can so damage Florida's tourist trade, perhaps another can work some magic and bring it back. Of course Harry Potter fans know Harry's the 'chosen one' but it may take the whole cast with wands out to rescue Florida from the oil dragon still lurking off the coast. You can find the latest on the oil spill here, but if you find it just too depressing, at least now all you readers of the Florahome USA blog know where to go in Florida to get some butterbeer.

FLORAHOME BLOG - Oil Spill Update
The Florahome USA blog oil spill update for June 10 2010 finds at the moment about as much frustration in those states threatened by the oil in the gulf as the amount of oil itself. Efforts to pin down an accurate figure for the amount of oil being released into the gulf are still ongoing. One of the main problems causing all the frustration is that no one knows if or when the oil may reach the Florida coast. The other big cause for concern is that the people who live and work in the area and who have the most to lose if the situation isn't handled correctly are not the ones in control of the situation, BP is. Having a bear just outside the family's camping tent is a scary thing. Trusting a gas station attendant you don't know to take care of the bear is even scarier. While we wait, thanks to those who are working and preparing to work to get us through this crisis and a special thanks to all those who visit the Florahome USA blog and who are continuing to pray for the best outcome possible.

Florahome USA Oil Spill Update
Considering the importance an impact the Deepwater Horizon oil spill has on all residence of the state of Florida, the Florahome USA blog is continuing to post updates, but The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has been designated the lead state agency for responding to potential impacts of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill along Florida’s shoreline. That website will serve as the primary location for updates and information on response actions and impacts to the state of Florida. At this point, no one knows for sure how much oil is actually being released into the gulf, but this report doesn't sound too good. As always, thanks for visiting Florahome USA.

Florahome Blog - Florahome, Florida
This post for the Florahome USA blog of Florahome, Florida is an
update on the current oil situation. --- Part of the gulf has been reopened for fishing, but how long Florida can avert this man-made monster is anyone's guess. Although Florahome is a good distance from the beach, no one in Florida is going to avoid the effects of this disaster if it does reach the Florida shore the way it has in Louisiana. To see Florida's beautiful beaches, its wildlife and economy threatened each day is hard for any resident of the state to witness and especially for those of us who have lived here all our life and have so many memories. Pray that those memories aren't all we'll be left with when this crisis is over. This BBC report illustrates more clearly than most exactly what is happening with the leak itself and will hopefully help in understanding the situation for readers of the Florahome USA blog. Thanks also to those praying for Louisiana and Florida.
