I've been keeping busy doing speaking engagements for my book and local history. I am always honored when invited to speak and grateful for the invitation. The wonderful thing about these talks are meeting so many interesting people. Many have fascinating stories to share as well. One organization that has invited me back is Case Western Reserve University's Shipwreck Camp- a camp for youths 12-15 that teaches them research, scuba diving, and constructing underwater equipment for diving to shipwrecks in Lake Erie as well as local history and environment. I am invited to participate each year and talk about my book and personal story of a Lake Erie shipwreck that involved a family member. I have just as much fun as the kids! It is a wonderful organization with an awesome staff and students. In this day and age, it is great to see interest in history and research.
