Our sea turtle nest inventories are going great! We've had a lot of people come out to witness us excavate the nests and to see some hatchlings!

At one inventory, I was asked by Riley if I could take a photo with her. Her parents informed me that her American Girl Doll, named Lea, is also a sea turtle conservationist! They sent me the photo as well as the image of the American Girl book of Lea, with sea turtles in the background!

Since the inventory, they sponsored me for the "Turtle Trek" race I have entered! And I greatly appreciate the support :)

Thank you so much! You just made Riley's year! She was so excited to see this. Hope to see you in August for another nest inventory, if not good luck with the rest of the season!

hey there!! We came tonight! Riley just loves it!!! Hahah!!!! Thank you for being so sweet to her, she was the one that asked you about releasing the turtles at night, she thought that would help with the seagull problem! Hahaha! I figured you would probably not remember us, I know you meet a ton of people! Haha! Thank you so much for remembering her, she will be thrilled, she talks about you all the time and about being on your blog! She tells everyone that will listen! Have a great rest of the summer!!!
