HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE AND LET'S SAY HELLO TO...

 Jane Goodall who is someone I have admired my whole life. She first captured my imagination not only because I was enthralled with her dedication to the chimpanzee, but because she and I shared last names. As a young girl I always wished that we were related. We weren't but I thought she was absolutely marvelous, and I still do. On April 3rd Jane celebrated her 91st birthday. A little late but...

Happy Birthday Jane!





As beautiful a lady now as she has always been, inside and out.


You can read about her life story here. She certainly has lived a fascinating and very worthy life, and long may she do so.

Two of her quotes read: 

"The least I can do is speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves."

and

"There is a powerful force unleashed when young people resolve to make a change."


Have a great day and thanks 

for stopping by.

HAPPY .....


"Our goal is not just an environment of clean air and water and scenic beauty.  The objective is an environment of decency, quality and mutual respect for all other human beings and all living creatures."

Founder of Earth Day

The history of Earth Day can be found at this link.

And if you haven't seen Jane Goodall on Google yet, I have embedded her video at the end of my post.  If you can't view the video, you can see it here at YouTube.



I have long admired this lady.  Back in my single days we shared the same surname.  I have always had a great love of animals, and in my youth I wished dearly that Jane and I were related.  I asked my father if we were.  His answer was no, but perhaps you are kindred spirits.  That's my connection.

Happy Earth Day Everyone.  Trying to do my part in my own small way.
