My hometown of Chattanooga is home to one of the great aquariums in the world. The Tennessee Aquarium has been around since 1992 which makes it 25 years old. Thousands of visitors each year come here to encounter fish, otters, penguins, birds, butterflies, sharks, primates and so much more. It’s a great educational institution that brings people to the city to learn more. We got tickets from some very generous friends and made a family day of it. It’s kind of nice to play tourist in your own city. I hope you enjoy this slideshow of what we saw.

Doing The Best You Can
One might think they are doing the best they can, however in the eyes of others are they? You always wonder if your efforts are truly making a difference or could you work harder. Even the people who are at the top of their field wonder am I giving it my all. Doing the best you can should be all anyone should expect even though they might not deserve it.
You also wonder if the people who give raises and opportunity are seeing you do your best when it counts the most. Praise is always good in this situation.
Sometimes we all wish others would give their best because so much of the burden is carried by ourselves. Without our best nothing gets accomplished. We all have to make things happen in all facets of life but there are times when we don’t want to do the best we can because we are just tired of it all.
Happy Fri-Yay Good People
We made it! Let’s finish the week strong everyone. Have a swell day!
Some Secrets To Blogging
I have been blogging a long time and I have found that the secret to a good blog is content, personality and honesty. People I think want to see something real and I try to be that in every post. Another secret is to keep on blogging…the more you do it the better you get at it.
Finding community and like-minded people can be a huge help too although you do find some folks who are heavy on the criticism.
Like anything it is good to make it fun and something that allows for expression and reflection. You might even change the world by your words and images. Blogging is awesome and I encourage you to be the star of your own blog.
