The next chapter
The sky is getting light a few minutes earlier now. Not too much earlier, but it is noticeable. The biting cold of last week has turned into a simple chill, not exactly warm, but a long way from icy. The seasons are changing as they usually do, in measured step, slowly and quietly. My writing […]

The fishwrap
The showing in Port Townsend went well the other night… 132 people came out and the level of discourse among the attendees was refreshing. I think that, for me, the most frustrating thing about the issue of marine debris to this point has been the inability of some people I’ve come across to accept that […]

Nothing to see here
There are huge brush fires in Australia. Massive. The drought in the midwest is so bad that barges are going to be pulled off the Mississippi soon, for how long is anyone’s guess. It snowed in San Diego today. Last year was the hottest year on record in the United States. Glaciers are flowing backwards, […]

With the Kickstarter campaign for the next Ikkatsu film set to begin within the next two weeks, there’s actually been quite a spate of media coverage of the last expedition. The timing is a good thing… I did an interview up at KUOW in Seattle last week. You can listen to it here. I’ve said […]

Seemed like a good idea…
I’m not sure if this hapless soul was Wave Vidmar or not. I’d be surprised, but then I get surprised a lot these days. Either way, if you’re thinking about making a solo sea kayak voyage from California to Hawaii, December may not be the most propitious time to get started. In fact, I’m not sure […]
