One of my most interesting work experiences on Route 66 by far was spending the travel season of 2022 as Park Director at the Blue Whale of Catoosa. As I grew the social media and the store, we received international attention, and I'd like to store and catalog those links here on my blog. One of the most exciting media contacts we received was a name I was already familiar with as a fan of travel, history, and all things strange: Atlas Obscura. I was honored to be interviewed and included in their telling of the story of how the whale came to be, and highly recommend listening, here:
