Wishing I was heading east to be part of another RetroGameCon this weekend, but alas, I chose to save myself for Really Rad Weekend next month. I hope everyone has fun in Syracuse, and I am really excited to head back to Fort Walton Beach, namesake for our own Walton the Turtle! 🐢

I feel it is wrong to continue to pollute in ways known to be harmful to other species, like our sea turtle friends, when other options are easily available.
