Saving Turtles, One Turtle at a Time

The Turtle Hospital in Marathon does amazing work with turtles harmed by pollution, boats and general mishaps. The facility is actually a 1950s era motel and night club that had a sea water pool. In the 1980s it transitioned to the facility it is today.

Jan's Fans

Cindy and I were among 58 folks from Colonial Church and Hallmark who walked to support Jan Parkinson in the Parkinson Foundation Moving Day Walk at Liberty Memorial. I meant to take my hat off before the photos.

Invisible Roof

I've rarely been in the Kauffman Center during daylight on a puffy cloud day. Looking up it's as though there is no roof.

Adventures Among Orangutans

Our last National Geographic Live of the series was all about orangutans in Borneo. Husband and wife team, Cheryl Knott and Tim Laman, have been working with the animals for 25 years. Fascinating.

These folks in Mission took the Free Little Library to a new level. It has rather an English country garden in the landscaping as well.

New Arrival

A gold-hatted gnome has appeared in my garden. Hayden gave it to me for Mother's Day. Love the whimsy it adds.

Hiking Hats

We walked the Kill Creek Streamway trail for a couple of miles. Little muggy but shady most of the way. Hats for everyone.
