Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to everyone!
Have you ever wondered about the origin of Father's Day?  Look no further!

On July 19, 1910, the governor of the U.S. state of Washington proclaimed the nation’s first “Father’s Day.” However, it was not until 1972, 58 years after President Woodrow Wilson made Mother’s Day official, that the day became a nationwide holiday in the United States.

Venus transit photo

Every now and then, I like to share something fun and/or creative. Today, I shot a great photo of the Venus transit.  Note the bright orange of the sun against the deep navy blue of deep space! :)    .......and while I have your attention, our 2012 AECT International Convention planners are working through the summer, making sure that we have a phenomenal convention in Louisville.  

Our convention occurs much more often than the Venus transit, but it is no less spectacular!
