U S Coast Guard in Review

Talk about a year. A record hurricane season, renewed focus on the Arctic and counternarcotics, vessel construction, even greater emphasis on professional development, COVID-19, and a continued focus on diversity efforts the U.S. Coast Guard saw a little bit of everything in 2020. In it all, the common denominator was people. The Coast Guard would not have been able to continually answer the call if not for its service men and women. It has always understood the power of a diverse workforce in race, gender, experience, education, and opinion and it leverages those differences to be the world’s best coast guard.

Lake Erie water levels for 2021

Lake Erie water levels this spring and summer will remain well above average, but lower than what was seen last year, according to the latest forecast from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Officials at the Corps of Engineers, who track and forecast Great Lakes water levels, say the below average precipitation this winter is contributing to the overall water levels. The Lake Erie water levels normally rise in the spring and peak during the summer and early fall months; the monthly averages set new records during 2019 and 2020. While the high water in itself is not often a problem, stormy weather and winds from the east can push the water inland toward Monroe County, according to the Corps.

Better Late Than Never

Last week my blogmates posted gorgeous photographs of their winter worlds. I tried to add a few of my own, but thanks to the vagaries of WordPress (a blog post all its own) they disappeared into the ether. I was disappointed, because I had a bunch of good ones to share. Then I realized today’s post was coming right up. Better late than never, as my Mom used to say. (She was prone to tardiness, and always said that in a self-forgiving tone, also a whole ‘nother blog post.) If you follow this blog on a regular basis you know that Diane and I are inveterate beach walkers, and it will be no surprise that the images that follow are from Maine beaches, most taken this year, but a few from past years. Enjoy!
