Walruses are under consideration for the endangered species list, but they might be gone before they make the cut.

The Proposed Pebble Mine is a environmental disaster just waiting to happen. Its swill pits will destroy one of the largest sustainable salmon runs left on the planet. Most everyone with a brain and commercial fisher people from Alaska and Washington have baned together to prevent this mine from ever happening. Even Washington Senator Maria Cantwell is behind stopping this mess.
Finally The Koch Brothers have come to the rescue of the pro pebble forces, and through such republican groups as cei they are aming to discredit the senator, and saying mining jobs are better than fish any old day!
This rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic is real hard work, that is why I am glad I am heading to the capital of amerika for some picture taking, and some serious Smithsonian investigation.
Huckleberry recomended this great hotel on J street. It is run by this French Man, I think she met in Paris. Pierre L'Enfant I was lucky to get a room...
Sorry you're getting so much exercise on the deck of the Titanic, but your efforts are appreciated!

I wondered if you two ladies had heard of this fellow, who is an Alaska photographer - really great stuff on his blog: http://www.alaskaphotographyblog.com/
ReplyDeleteAlso, have a friend from high school/college who is documentary photographer who just finished a residency in Alaska ... will pass along her URLs if she publishes the photos somewhere I can link to. She's a former Fulbright winner who's been an awesome photographer since I met her in 8th grade. Really.
