This month, I’m reminded by the ongoing turmoil in the world of a discussion post I wrote seven years ago. I can’t remember what it was that was happening then, but it made me feel as though reading (and my mostly bookish blog) could be considered trivial in comparison.

I’d appreciate hearing about any environmentally responsible rental providers or tips for responsible enjoyment of the water. Looking forward to a constructive conversation!
