Arlo went to my (tiny)High School and Ray and Alice were teachers there. Arlo is a few years older than me and had graduated by the time I got there. Ray and Alice were no longer teaching but still lived in town in the church and the restaurant was still going strong.

I've lived in the Atlantic coast, on a tidal estuary, since the early 80s. Sea rise is real, it's taking the bottom of my yard away. We have 29 feet of tidal range here, a 3% rise is another foot more, and we are getting it here and now.
