I think these are melon flavored rolling papers. Can you say disgusting?!
April has been a tough month for me making progress on The Daily Ocean. I've been out of town for most of the last two weeks only to come home from my spring break trip with a cold.
I think this may be the 7th or 8th cold since Sept. and I am telling you, I'm over it. Anyone else feel like the age of the super bug is upon us?

This picture doesn't do justice to the mess I found on the beach tonight. It was strewn for as far as I could see with mostly plastic packaging and straws. It looked to me that the trash had come in from the water and been left at the high tide line as the surf retreated. 6.2 pounds in 20 minutes of wrappers that are milliliters thick is not a good feeling.
Kiss My Country Blog has a great post up about a filmmaker named Laura Seltzer who made a movie entitled, "Last boat Out" about Chesapeake Bay. It catalogs the fishermen in the bay whose way of life is threatened by the pollution there. Very interesting, and sad. It was shown to the U.S. Congress organized by the Congressional Water Caucas. Check it out.
