Ham made the front page of Life Magazine I think. I thought it was so cool to have a chimp going to space. My Dad was on the launch team for Explorer I. Very proud of his contributions to space exploration.

On this day at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station:
America's first satellite, Explorer I launched 31 Jan 1958.
Space Chimp Ham 31 Jan 1961 (five months before Alan Shepard).

If you know me, you know I never quit. The impact of Hurricane Matthew on our lives has been devastating. I am seeking an investor or group of investors willing to invest
$ 350k in return for proportional ownership interests in the fish farm. I have secured a commitment from SBA for $ 450k for operating costs contingent on the additional investment. I have a month to secure the investment. I have been repairing equipment and cleaning tanks, etc. since the hurricane so that the farm can be re-started quickly. We appreciate your prayers and well wishes. If you can make a significant investment, please message me.

I appreciate all the kind comments we have received from our family and friends regarding the damages to our home and business as a result of Hurricane Matthew. As we approach this wonderful Christmas season please continue to pray for my family whose lives in some ways are stuck back on October 7. My friend Eva Nagorski produced a video regarding our situation whereby I can bring to the attention of our elected officials the plight of farmers affected by this hurricane. The link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDf6uQAgco0. I also want to thank my friends Jack Jarrell, Becky Reichenberg and Kevin Reinecke who have gone out of their way to help as well as Dorothy Swayze and Gerald Swayze who have opened their home to us. If you know of anyone that can help with our situation, please feel free to share the video.
