abovo foto - Jackson scare
I was in the process of telling a friend why I though he might benefit from joining my LinkedIn network.
He runs a wedding photography business on the side of his day job, and I used the example that my contacts might be searching for a photographer.
That made me think that I already have two photographers in my LinkedIn contacts, and I decided to pass these web site addresses on to my friend.
I sent him to Kris Krug and Victor Aberdeen’s sites.
To make sure I had Victor’s URL right I went to his site.
Both Kris and Victor knows my friend Ean Jackson. And I guess this is what made my heart beat faster when I opened Victor’s site.
Victor shows some of his most recent photos on his home page. When I opened it up I saw a photo with the caption “Jackson”. In it you see 2 search and rescue technicians doing their work.
Ean is an ultra-runner, and you never know what he might be up to. A while back he ran for 43 HOURS and 50 minutes, completing the 180 km long Sunshine Coast Trail NON-STOP!
So, it would not surprise me if Ean needed some Search and rescue help somewhere.
Jackson turned out to be a dog. A black lab that had just fallen off a 50 ft cliff.
I’m glad it wasn’t Ean, and happy they rescued the dog as well.
Have you donated to your local Search and rescue group lately?

On the Internet, nobody knows you are a dog.

Actually, there’s a cartoon behind that saying. It’s at:
