Sea Turtle

I wanted to thank you for taking part in the Sea Turtle Conservancy’s summer turtle watch program on July 18, 2019.

As a reminder of your experience with the Sea Turtle Conservancy, please find attached a night vision image of the loggerhead turtle you observed that night. If you were the primary contact for a group, please share this image with the others in your group. The attached image can be shared with family and friends, as well as on social media.

We hope your experience is one you will never forget and that it has inspired, or enlivened, a passion for these amazing creatures. A passion we hope will help ensure sea turtles are around for future generations to be able to have the same experience.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Cheers,
Dan Evans

Apollo 50th

Today the United States and probably most of the World’s population is celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo landing on the Moon. As I mentioned 10 years ago on this blog, I know exactly where I was on July 20, 1969. Last week, I went on a search for my Boy Scout Jamboree photo taken during that week in 1969. I found it and here it is below. I’m in the front row.

Yesterday (July 19, 2019), Mary Ellyn and I visited the Kennedy Space Center in Florida during the Apollo 11 anniversary events. Below are a couple of photos from our visit.
