Sea Turtles

Sea Turtles are awesome creatures and makes for a fun jigsaw puzzle to construct. Living in North Palm Beach, Florida has given us the opportunity to see these great creatures in person. I have seen them while boating on the ocean, as well as at the local Loggerhead Marinelife Center in Juno Beach. We also participated in the Turtlefest 2014 with one of my other companies, by creating a set of Cornhole Boards featuring the Loggerhead Turtle.

F-16 Falcon, The Ultimate Ride


The F-16 Fighting Falcon, which has been in production since the late '70's is one of my favorite aircraft, along with the Mustang and the Corsair from the WWII era. This jigsaw puzzle, F-16 Fighting Falcon reminded me of instrument ground school in Fort Wayne, Indiana. One evening, Kathy, our instructor, asked if we had ever seen night takeoffs of the local Air National Guard 122 Fighter Wing, also known as the 'Blacksnakes'? She said we will take a break about 7pm and go watch the afterburner take-offs. As I am writing this post and researching links, I see that the Blacksnakes are transitioning to A-10 Warthogs, another awesome fighter, though I prefer the Falcon.
