News from the Week

Due to the Thanksgiving Holiday, we only had one real story, a very disturbing report from the Traverse City Record-Eagle on bird & fish die-offs in the Great Lakes. The article conteds that not only are zebra mussels responsible for the type E botulism outbreak that killed an estimated 2,900 birds on the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore since August, it's just the tip of the iceberg.

We probably had the warmest run of late November weather in many years, with temps above 50 most days. After a dismal fall, not many folks were complaining.
