Could you map that?


Many of you have probably heard of ChatGPT, the online AI Chatbot. Lady Slipper crew member Tom Bergen asked ChatGPT to generate a story about sailing from Racine Wisconsin to California. Here is the result:


Once upon a time, there was a sailor named John, who lived in Racine, Wisconsin. He had always dreamed of sailing across the country to California, and one day, he decided to make that dream a reality.


He purchased a beautiful sailboat and spent months outfitting it for the long journey. He stocked it with all the necessary supplies, including food, water, and navigation equipment. Finally, the day arrived for John to set sail. He said goodbye to his family and friends, and set off into the great unknown.


The first few days of the journey were smooth sailing, but as John reached the open ocean, he was met with strong winds and rough waves. He battled through storms and high seas, but never gave up on his goal. As he sailed further west, he encountered dolphins swimming alongside the boat, and even saw a school of whales in the distance. He also met many other sailors on the journey, and shared stories of the sea with them.


After several weeks at sea, John finally saw the coast of California on the horizon. He sailed into a beautiful marina in San Francisco, where he was greeted by a crowd of people who had been following his journey. He was exhausted but overjoyed to have completed his dream of sailing across the country.


John decided to stay in California and continue sailing the pacific coast, he also became a mentor to many young sailors, and his journey became a legend among the sailing community.

Sailing into a "school" of whales across Nevada and Utah must have been extremely exciting after going over mountains of waves in the Rockies! Seeing so many fossils of whales in the Bonneville flats area confirms that some whales and dolphins were trying to set land speed records before the last ice age! Captain John's sailing discoveries will add to the geological records, and really improve the 4th grade curriculum which include the earth when Idaho was connected to Hawaii and Rhode Island was connected to Morocco, Africa. Captain John, I hope to read about your next sailing chapters as you explore the Pacific. The 4th graders will love the sailing adventure, and get outstanding grades on their geology tests!…
