Society of Environmental Journalists Rachel Carson Book Award 2016
Judges were impressed by the painful beauty and eloquence of Deborah Cramer’s writing; one saw “The Narrow Edge” as a story of loss and hopeful restoration while another said the book “represents everything about Rachel Carson’s legacy that the book award stands for.” In her book, Cramer follows the 19,000-mile migration of an endangered shorebird called the red knot, which depends on horseshoe crab eggs for survival. So do humans:

Headed down to Good Harbor after work last night to have dinner with some cousins and we were in good company! Lots of people out enjoying the warm breezes and ocean.

I like the aesthetic of the 3d metal letters on the DPW at Poplar
Rose Lopiccolo of DPW says that the trash hauler may not do the routes in the same order so we may notice route and timing changes with neighborhood trash pick ups.
Rose writes:
“Our new hauler, JRM began September 1. Just a friendly reminder that all trash and recycling, by City Ordinance(Sec 9-2), needs to be curb-side no later than 7:00 AM. We cannot guarantee that the new hauler will do the routes in the same order as the previous hauler. If animals are an issue in your area it is recommended that you use a trash barrel to contain your purple bag. If your trash or recycling was missed please call JRM at 800-323-4285, or the DPW at 978-281-9785.
We appreciate your patience and understanding during this transition.”

I was conversing with my other better half this morning, Izzy
. She thinks this promotion of free Cats adoptions and discounted dog adoptions is a great idea. Izzy says you better get there when they open today because she thinks all the dogs will be adopted today.
But free cats?! What! Izzy says “you couldn’t give them away”. Hopefully she’s wrong and all the animals will find a great home today.
