That Rebecca Rettig and Mitch Mahoney just bought a house in Lanesville?  Rebecca is a devoted FOB and came into the gallery to get a sticker.  Lanesville, welcome a lovely new couple to your great little village.  Jim, keep an eye out for them – I told them about the great community center you have there.

Hi Joey,
To follow up from when I saw you last on the Neck, I’m on my way to Hawaii to meet up with the marine research sailboat SeaDragon (http://www.panexplore.com/) and marine scientists from Algalita Marine Research Foundation (www.algalita.org) to sail from Hawaii toVancouver through the North Pacific Gyre, where our plastic trash accumulates.  More about the multi-media presentation/performative lecture that I’m creating about the issue can be found on my website – www.karenristuben.com, as well as a blog that I’ll be updating throughout this journey.
I can’t believe I forgot to bring a GMG bumpersticker!!  Maybe I’ll just put the GMG logo on my computer screen and "represent" from the N. Pacific in a week or so!!
Hope you have a great July….
Karen
