A Big Surprise and a Huge Blessing

We posted earlier that the Stone Crab Kids did their first public research presentation in front of an extremely gracious crowd. The West Ashley Outboard Motor Club (WAOMC) located in Charleston SC,  invited the SCK's to their monthly meeting. And what started out to be a 10 minute presentation lasted well over 30 minutes.  The folks at the WAOMC asked lots of questions and the SCK's surprised everybody ( including me ) with their knowledge of stone crabs and their research.

A short time later, a letter addressed to the SCK's showed up in the mail. The kids opened the envelope to find a donation check. They were stunned. What a wonderful surprise.

As good and as timely as that check was the real blessing was that the folks at WAOMC asked the SCK's to come back. But this time the club members wanted to bring their children and grandchildren to hear the SCK's presentation.

How sweet it is ... when people want to share our family with their families.
