See Learn. Change. Plastic Recycling: The Triangle Is a Lie. What I Do, and How I Do It. What I Did, and How I Did It. Thursday, February 6, 2014. Collection Report - Dec 8, 2013. Sunday December 8. 10:00AM An hour after low tide. 27-28 degrees. Overcast, thin clouds. Three weeks since my last visit. Dull, dull, dull weeks, except for one windstorm the previous week. There was a huge mound of pebbles at back of foreshore - almost a dune, most likely washed up by the windstorm. So, waves strong enough to ...

See Learn. Change. Plastic Recycling: The Triangle Is a Lie. What I Do, and How I Do It. What I Did, and How I Did It. Tuesday, June 24, 2014. Collection Report - February 4, 2014. I stopped by on January 28. But the sea was bone-frozen, a giant ice block, but a beautiful day. So I came back a week later. Tuesday, February 4, 2014. 10:15AM. 2 hrs after a very low low tide. Weekend's rainspots meet morning's tide line. Heavy, bulky chunks just all over the shore. What kind of a day was it? 6 (2 new locall...

Saturday September 15. 1:15PM, near low tide. Mid-60s, nice seabreeze. Mostly sunny. Fall-like crisp air. Higher against back of foreshore August's clusters and clumps of pebble-sized rocks were still there. But matted down. "Aging." Smushing themselves back down, unrestored by the late summer's weak waves. 11 (balloon, P...

The Flotsam Diaries: What I Do, and How I Do It
http://theflotsamdiaries.blogspot.com/p/what-i-do-and-how-i-do-it.html
See Learn. Change. Plastic Recycling: The Triangle Is a Lie. What I Do, and How I Do It. What I Did, and How I Did It. What I Do, and How I Do It. This is Curtis Cove, Biddeford, Maine:. It's at the end of a long, winding, wonderful seashore drive that wends past a lazy river, wide-open marshlands, and beautiful homes. Since January 1, 2012, I've been visiting the cove weekly to scour the same 150-foot stretch of beach for what's come in. The results have been gobsmacking. February 29, 2012. About 75% co...

The Flotsam Diaries: Collection Report - November 8, 2013
http://theflotsamdiaries.blogspot.com/2013/11/collection-report-november-8-2013.html
See Learn. Change. Plastic Recycling: The Triangle Is a Lie. What I Do, and How I Do It. What I Did, and How I Did It. Sunday, November 10, 2013. Collection Report - November 8, 2013. A fresh collection report - first in a long time! Friday, November 8. 8:30AM. Just after low tide, a fairly weak one. Chill in the air, upper 30s, but warm sun and little breeze made the morning pleasant. This lobster-trap bait bag, blown high onto the backshore, suggested that winds may have blown in more than guessed.

To readers of this blog it may seem that the Flotsam Diaries just went bye-bye. No! I've been visiting the beach in 2014 and recording. But getting them blogged hit roadblocks. Which I hope are behind! Back of foreshore covered in snow. Foreshore down to tideline of course all cleared. A gorgeous, clean, white snow. 6 (bottlec...

Sunday, August 11. 6:45 PM. Low tide still a couple hrs away, but wanted to get in for the last hour of sunlight after being away for two weeks again. There were also countless sandpiper tracks - the migratory birds had begun their long treks toward winter grounds, still here in the height of summer. It was just what I nee...

Thursday, June 13. 9:30 AM. Mid-60s and on its way up. Light breeze, 1/2 hour before low tide, bright sun. Bring on summer! And still all to myself. Long lines of clouds in the sky, reverberating energy up and down just like a plucked guitar string - or a pebble thrown in the ocean. Well, you tell me. 158 pcs of nonrope debris.
