Oh boy, this week we have a solemn tribute to mine and many friends of Joe Wood.  Joe was one and most important driving force behind  the Panama Canal Museum at the University of Florida.  I first met Joe in 1999 during the early days of organizing a Panama Canal Museum.  Joe and Chuck Hummer (RIP) were heading up the idea of establishing this museum.  Through Joe's perciverance all these years, the Panama Canal Museum is permanently a part of the University of Florida.  The photo above is Joe and I during the Panama Canal trivia game at the annual Panama Canal Society Reunion working on one of the questions.  We were on the winning team. We are going to miss you Joe, God Bless your soul.
