The Deleted Scenes - New and Old #101

Fun, neat read. Oyster Pirates in the San Francisco Bay, JSTOR Daily, Katrina Gulliver, February 13, 2023
Interesting piece of history here. Gulliver also notes that the oyster industry in the Bay Area today is dead. The story feels distant now, but the themes are ever-present. And since today’s links are kind of quirky, rounding them out is this live camera of the major train station in Prague.

Similarly, I like to sometimes stand in a parking lot when I’m near Dulles Airport and just watch and listen to planes fly over. Anyway—happy St. Patrick’s Day!
