Johnnie and I have been back for over a week and it has been difficult returning to NJ. The weather has not cool, it has been drier,and I miss the sun and warmth of AZ.
In one of the many hats that I don, I am a graduate student. In my course, Writing for Electronic Communities, I have ]been introduced to Voice Thread. This is a very interesting tool. You create a presentation that is interactive. I have tried to post the short presentation into this blog but it seems that I am missing a step.
I can talk about Wright Brothers National Memorial. Of course, we all know that Orville and Wilbur Wright are considered the fathers of flight. Johnnie is interested in all things that can move or be driven: submarines, helicopters, semis, rv’s, etc. What is most amazing to me is seeing the distance that was traveled in those beginning flights. Just a few feet. This was the beginning of flight and now we can travel thousands of miles with hundreds of people, enclosed, in the plane. We enjoyed our afternoon at the park on our way to Cape Hatteras National Seashore which was our destination for the week.
