Orange is a color that comes into its own this month

　　
　　Orange is a color that comes into its own this month: Glowing pumpkins, crisp leaves, dazzling marigolds, and for those of us lucky enough to live around here, fluttering butterflies — Monarchs to be precise — making their unlikely journey south for the winter.
One October of my childhood, a number of the evergreen trees in our yard burst into a blaze of orange as a swarm (no, really, that’s their collective noun) of Monarch butterflies arrived to rest for the night. We spent a wide-eyed evening watching these fragile creatures, and imagining how many times those paper wings would pulse in the 2,000 mile journey to sunny canyons in Mexico.
This year, when we have poured more sand than rain from our gauges, and we ponder the effects of a devastating drought on livestock and land and people and wildlife, it has been especially sweet to see those familiar little wings dipping and soaring and swooping on their timeless trail south.
Each flash of orange reminds us that nature has a grand way of carrying on through the worst of times.
When you need a little good news, don’t forget to look outside. It might be fluttering by

Nature, Discovery News etc: Krikey and Holy Captain Jack Sparrow, It’s a KRAKEN!

　　

The kraken that demolished a sailing ship in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest was bigger, but the one in the news today is a pretty tall tale too. Krakens don’t all you forever-adolescent monster fans know, is a mythological beast, more squid than octopus but it’s a myth so it’s your pick. It was huge. Old woodcuts show ships foundering in their arms. Then along came a paleontologist from Mount Holyoke College to tell a meeting of the Geological Society of America that by a long tentacle of inference he thinks a 100-foot long beast of krakenish appearance once broke ichthyosaurs’ necks and ate them, back in the Triassic. The evidence lies in Davey Jones’s locker – lined up vertebral disks, in regular patterns and rearranged from their natural sequence in a living creature. Today’s they are in Nevada, stranded by geological uplift of a vanished sea. They are strange – who’s to say they cannot be a deliberate mimicking of the suckers on its arms by a colossal cephalopod at the entry to its abyssal lair? A self-portrait, if you will. Octopi are darned smart for a spineless creature, squid maybe too, and a big one might have done this.

　　Hmppphhhhtt. Sure. It’s possible. But possible means maybe and maybe usually means probably not in my book just because the cosmos has more maybes than realities. One does not pass up a story like this easily. But, one ought to call around just to be sure there aren’t other experts giggling at the notion. A few did. The story, if one has to write it, ought to be the persistently deep mystery of this one fossil bed, as illustrated by the lengths to which some (one) expert went to make sense of them. This is a stab in the dark.
Still, hard not to get on board with the imagery this fabulation inspires.

I want to say everyone should love our environment

　

　I wanted to share my enthusiasm and hope for our unique and wonderful Eastern Panhandle community. I recently traveled throughout southern West Virginia. Returning home to our little corner of the world made me appreciate everything that we have here. I send my hearty thanks to those individuals who are trying to revitalize downtown Martinsburg. It is rewarding to come home to our cozy community.
If there is one important lesson I learned from my trip - it derived from the profound sadness of viewing the stripped and barren landscape of "mined" West Virginia. Talking to my fellow West Virginians throughout our state made me more aware of how precious our unpolluted, healthy and pristine environment is here. The daily sight of ugly stripped barren land and constant water troubles are part of everyday living for many our southern West Virginia neighbors.
Residents who live near mining areas have health burdens that are sad to witness. Everyone has remembrances of how vital and healthy their neighborhoods were before mining came to town. There is no pride left among those who remain. Many wish they could leave, and most eventually do.
My thoughts and prayers go to my friends and family locally in Gerrardstown, who may be doomed to the same plight due to the company that plans to operate an industrial quarry mining operation on North Mountain in an incompatible residential location.
There is alternative progressive economic development besides mining in which West Virginia should invest. Citizens and our environment should not be continually exploited for the enrichment of out-of-state mining entities.
West Virginia is at a crossroads. If residents do not have the promise of healthy water and air along with a peaceful homestead, there will be no future growth for our state. Either elected officials will work with the citizens and protect our residential communities or we can continue to watch as towns become empty shells.

Drifting at sea

　　At long last, here is an account of our Saturday at Preseli – spent sea kayaking and coasteering!
We started our morning by kayaking. When we arrived at the harbor a salty, chilly breeze was whispering past us, but we were kept warm by our wet suits and our anticipation of adventure.

　　Ready for Kayaking
Following a brief “how to” session (during which I may or may not have been guilty of splashing my flat mates a few times), we headed out into the sea. We tried our paddles at “rock-hopping” – essentially surfing a wave between rocks – explored the coast, peeked into some caves, and were visited by some seals.
