We bought an I-pad to keep on top of e-mail and requests for reservations. It has a handy camera but I couldn't figure out how to access those photos to add to our blog as we travelled. A tech-savvy friend stopped by and showed us how to mail it to our blog. She asked to use a photo for a test and I picked this one.

There was actually a reason for making this selection. I was asked to participate in a panel discussing possible ways to improve recovery efforts for endangered fish. The answers have been obvious for 20 years but the same questions are being asked.
Anyway, just before I retired a fellow researcher wrote me a nice note saying I reminded him of the "Lorax" in the Dr. Seuss stories. I wasn't familiar with the character but discovered it was the "environmentalist, the one wanting to save the trees" that was quite a complement. Anyway, the theme of my talk was Dr. Seuss, something I would never have gotten away with when I was employed. At the end I showed the Lorax and diffused my image over it. Fun! I have to work on my mustache.
