Here’s an Idea
Third Thursdays
I’m sure it’s been proposed, but maybe you could shed some light as to why it’s not happening.
In other communities they have “Third Thursday Events” where they close their downtown streets on a certain night of each month and the shop owners stay open and local artisans set up kiosks in the middle of the streets and displays of their art for sale.
They have jazz bands or other kinds of bands and the shop owners have wine and cheese and hors’ douvres.
Why dont we have that here?
We have an incredible arts community.
Can we get to work on it?
It works in Vegas and it works in Naples. I bet it would be fantastic here from Summer through fall.

Lobster Pulls Tail Out Of It’s Shell During Molting Process
We had a lobster molt at the dock this morning. It’s somewhat rare so I documented it for you to see the process. Video will be coming tomorrow morning.

Lobster Molting At The Dock Image 1
Notice the shell separate in a straight line at the top of the carapace. You can’t see it in this picture but the tail has already withdrawn from the shell. The live lobster is to the top in the picture and the half of it carapace shell is left at the bottom of the picture. The lobster is barely strong enough to move.
More pics to come and video is loading.
