@StevenLJohnson @jmckeever TBI in the elderly often leads to depression, insomnia, mood swings, dementia, and so many other things that are tossed up to old age.

I go down to the shore in the morning
and depending on the hour the waves
are rolling in or moving out,
and I say, oh, I am miserable,
what shall–
what should I do? And the sea says
in its lovely voice:
Excuse me, I have work to do.

@SeawellAshley We went on a 2.5hr tour this week as part of the Wings Over Water Wildlife Festival and saw deer, birds, and turtles. Then we went back yesterday evening in search of more.

Vacationing on OBX as a child, I was obsessed with the red wolves released into the Alligator River NWR. Extinct in the wild, the future of the species hung on those 8 wolves. 35yrs later, I’m here with my kids, watching, listening. 6 pups born this year. There’s still hope.

WHAT KILLED THE CRABS?

The official story is something like “a billion snow crabs disappeared.”

If that sounds fishy to you, keep reading. Let’s dive into the ecology, oceanography, & geopolitical history of the Bering Sea.

I so hope this happens. With everything that Montpelier has been through over the past year seems like poetic justice.
