Bitts and Hawsers

Bitts and Hawsers

In 1993, Carol went out into the Gulf of Mexico to help with the final release of endangered Ridley Sea Turtles raised by the National Marine Fisheries Service's Sea Turtle Headstart program in Galveston, Texas. Seasick, worn-out, she hung onto these bitts and hawsers for dear life. Finally, the seas calmed, and the yearling turtles were released into the Gulf.

Bitts and Hawsers is but one view of the sea. Epic Drifts another.
