- Jupiter Foundation Listen to Big Island whales live!
- Manta Pacific Research Foundation Learn about Hawaiian manta rays. I'm on the board of this organization.
My Honey's Underwater Adventures
- Manta Ray Video My husband made this video about majestic manta rays. It'll dazzle you at minute 3:40.
- Whale Songs My husband's recording of whale songs.
- Whales and Sharks Video My lovely husband at work, the guy in the black suit (not the one with the beard).
Things I Miss About Home
- Apples Nothing beats a New England apple. If you've ever had my apple crisp, you'd understand. Ask my husband.
- Being Around Lots of People With a Shared History I'm 3rd generation Boston Irish. My Polish, Ukranian, and French Canadian relatives all landed in Boston too. I'm really far away from my roots, and of course my family.
- Big Old Houses That Can Weather a Storm I always envisoned living in a big old historic house, with a HUGE tree in the yard.
- Harvard Square The history, the river, the quaint shops, all of it (minus Harvard). My husband and I fell in love along the Charles.
- Rocks My husband and I spent 2 memorable weeks in Acadia National Park in Maine. It may be the most beautiful place on earth. I love you Hawaii, but young lava rock doesn't hold a flame to the 600 million year old bedrock of Maine.
- Seasons As in fall foliage, snow, rain, and 2 weeks of air conditioning.
- Trees! Big old trees with changing leaves. I never knew I would miss trees this much, I hurt for them.
