Keith Jeffers info about Dan Lehman

Icon viewer and former Bluffton resident Keith Jeffers sent us the following update on Dan Lehman, another former Bluffton resident: Here goes Keith's note:

Dear Fred, Thought this might be of interest to the Icon...Dan Lehman is giving some green time in the Gulf utilizing his skills as a boat captain to help clean up the BP oil mess.

Also, it would be my suggestion to make it a bit easier for people to submit old photos and stories about Blluffton to the Icon for your consideration of publication.
