Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, Folkston, Georgia 

Scrambled: KKOOEEEENF ANNOLIAT FELLIDWI FREGUE

Known to early Indian tribes as “The Land of the Trembling Earth,” the Okefenokee is a vast cypress swamp (actually a type of peat bog) on the Georgia-Florida line. Think alligators -- lots of alligators.  My favorite adventure there:  Watching a family of sandhill cranes step delicately through the wetlands. The baby was still young and clumsy on long unsteady legs, like a foal.  He kept falling down in the muck. See samples of our work on the visitor center.

Washington Monument Repairs

DateThursday, June 5, 2014 at 03:32PM

When's the last time you looked out over Washington, D.C., from the top of the Washington Monument? Try it again this spring, when this iconic landmark reopens, with earthquake repairs and new exhibits planned by a team including yours truly. 

Goolrick Interpretive Group was lucky enough to work with Healy Kohler Design, Color-Ad (fabrication), and NPS personnel from the Monument and Harpers Ferry Center; together we spent the last six months or so creating new exterior and interior exhibits for the Monument.
