This week’s prompt features the written word in beautiful script. I offer a heartfelt hand written note to the Walter Stieglitz, the Regional Director of the Alaska Region of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

After the Exxon Valdez oil spill, second grader, Kelly Middlestead advocated that the government protect wildlife post haste. Kelly, you deserve a gold star for citizenship. I hope you’re still writing.

I recently finished reading Erik Larson’s The Devil in the White City and have been enthralled with the story and magnificent architecture at the World’s Colombian Exposition of 1893. Seems there isn’t anything on this scale nowadays.

The source of these photos is the Field Museum Library’s Flickr account.
