Rights Of Nature - The Caloosahatchee River David Webster 2019-09-04 | The Caloosahatchee River and Lake Okeechobee are ground zero for the Cyanobacteria and Red Tide water crisis of Summer 2018, which decimated sea life and river life, as well as the tourism industry of Southwest Florida. I live on the river, and we are doing something about it.
BF Goodrich Tire Incident and Damages Report - Also Good Sams Towing Services David Webster 2017-12-26 | On December 19th, 2017 about 2pm, my right front B.F. Goodrich tire lost its tread, and nearly caused an accident. I was fortunate to zip off the freeway unharmed. The tread whipped the fender area preatty good. I had Good-Sams Towing service, which caused the first disappointment when I phoned in a tire change. A nice big flatbed tow truck showed up for the tire change, but they were unable to remove my spare from the truck. When I notified Good Sams, they said to convert the tire change to a tow was not possible, and a second visit was not allowed. They would not tow my truck. I had to pay for the tow in spite of having Good Sam's Towing service. In my opinion, don't waste your time with Good Sams Roadside service. Switch to Allstate towing or AAA. Secondly, I don't recommend BF Goodrich tires anymore. They are failing me in this ordeal, and their warranty isn't worth the paper it's printed on.

The Dolphins Are Toying With My Neighbors Dog David Webster 2017-02-09 | Here in Sunny North Fort Myers, on the Edge of the Caloosahatchee, rural Lee County has some spectacular wildlife and nature as a piece of the ocean protrudes miles inland as a part of the Mouth of the River. As the tides come in, the water rises with saltwater, and then it goes back out, leaving more of the fresh water run-off from lake Okeechobee to the East. We find a mix of freshwater creatures running into the salt, and mixing with sea life. It's a perfect spot for dolphins to come catch a mix of fish types. This evening they huddled around my neighbors sea wall and chatted with the little dog... enjoy!See so much more of this beautiful area on the Facebook page: Southwest Florida Sights and Scenes!
Mullet Mansion on the Sea David Webster 2017-01-05 | The locals know him as Dan the Mullet man. They say he lives on his "raft." But with cold blowing air conditioning, powered paddle system, and the ability to live "where he likes," Dan doesn't need to pay property taxes to sit on the sea, and his counterparts that are "land-bound" pay millions for the kind of views he takes in every day! Go Dan, I love the Mullet Mansion!
My Tiny House Was Stolen! David Webster 2017-01-04 | Larry Thomas' tiny house was stolen. "My custom built tiny house and all of my belongings was stolen on 12/31/2016 from a truck stop in Hermiston Oregon. I was in the process of moving to Nevada when I got stuck in a horrible snow storm and could not drive further until the storm passed. I was forced to leave my house under watch at a truck stop. I was in the process of going back when the weather cleared to recover my home. Unfortantely someone broke the hitch lock and stole the house that I built with ALL of my possessions. Many which cannot be replaced because of sentimental value. Any and all help would be appreciated. The photos shown was the last place it was seen. At one Stop truck stop in Hemiston Oregon. If you have seen this house please call 911 and contact the Umitilla Oregon sherrifs office.""I built it over the course of 6 months, and started living in it about 3 or four months ago, and it was my main living situation here in Nevada where I was originally from."The trailer was last seen at: One Stop Mart 28810 Stafford Hansel Rd. Hermiston Oregon right off the 84. If you have any details, call 911, or you may send an email to offgridjourney@gmail.com, and I will forward the information.

Crescent beach after hurricane matthew David Webster 2016-10-15 | In Crescent Beach Florida, I met Dan. Fortunately he still has his home, but the water coming through the house ruined everything. On his street, mountains of debris.... not scattered by a storm, but wet furniture and personal belongings being set outside for removal is what you see. Some storms take it all away. In this case, residents make the hard decisions around water damage and deciding what can be saved. The power is back on after a few days without, and Dan was busy handling county water and sewer lines after the storm, so he had to wait to come home to deal with his own circumstances. One of the post-hurricane heroes who put the greater good above his own circumstances. #hurricanematthew #crescentbeach #staugustine #floridahurricane #reconstruction

Though this conversation was in Florida about Florida water, it will set you up to ask the right kinds of questions where you are.

The Elk of Cataloochee, North Carolina David Webster 2016-09-17 | Elk once roamed the southern Appalachian mountains and elsewhere in the eastern United States. They were eliminated from the region by over-hunting and loss of habitat. The last elk in North Carolina was believed to have been killed in the late 1700s. In Tennessee, the last elk was killed in the mid-1800s. By 1900, the population of elk in North America dropped to the point that hunting groups and other conservation organizations became concerned the species was headed for extinction.A primary mission of the National Park Service is to preserve native plants and animals on lands it manages. In cases where native species have been eliminated from park lands, the National Park Service may choose to reintroduce them. Reintroduction of elk into Great Smoky Mountains National Park began in 2001 when 25 elk were brought from the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area along the Tennessee-Kentucky border. In 2002, the park imported another 27 animals.nps.gov/grsm/learn/nature/elk.htm

Black Woodchuck Yellow Belly in SW Florida David Webster 2016-08-17 | An afternoon of golf with my friend Kevin lead to a discovery on about the 6th hole. There were very few golfers out there, and we came driving down the path in the golf cart. Ahead was a cute woodchuck, black in color with a yellow belly and yellow tail. I'm very familiar with the species because I spent some of the summer on Mount Rainier, and have been enthralled with them my whole life since playing with them in Tualomne Meadows Yosemite as a child and a youth. Those would be Rock Chucks as they call them, but this guy definitely has those characteristics. He is calm of temperament, and patient to see what we were going to do. When Kevin made squeak noises, the chuck stood up and looked around to see what we were up to.... for quite a while. Then back to his foraging. And again, when I approached with the camera, he stood up, as if to say "what ya got for me?" Wish I had a nice telephoto camera with me, but just had the phone. What do you think?

Modobag - The Suitcase you can ride on! David Webster 2016-07-24 | http://www.offgridquest.com/gadgets/ride-on-suitcase"Modobag is one of the most innovative and exciting advancements to hit the travel industry since rolling suitcases were introduced in the 1970's. I have test driven the Modobag at heavily-trafficked airports, including O'Hare, JFK and LaGuardia. From the first-time traveler to the veteran flight attendant, there is widespread agreement that Modobag will help make travel more functional and fun. Where once travelers had to run through the airport with heavy gear to catch connections they can now get where they need to be on time, on their Modobag." -Kevin O'Donnell

In The Rain Shadow Of Mount Olympus, The Sun Shines! David Webster 2016-07-17 | Text transcript from video:If someone told you that it always rains in the Northwest, they would be talking about the constant cloud cover 9 months out of the year, and the excitement that comes when a clear day reveals a view of mount Rainier or the Olympics. Short cloudy winter days make one yearn for Summer when it grows dark after 10pm, and twilight seems to last forever. As the mountain snows melt off, water flows in abundance as seen here at Sol Duc Falls In Olympic National Park. Most of the moisture pushes over Mount Olympus, dropping an excess of 200 inches of rainfall per year, making this the wettest spot in North America!Yet this tremendous rainfall comes with what has been dubbed the Olympic Rain Shadow on the "back side of the mountain." The town of Sequim is directly effected by the rain shadow, receiving only 16 to 18 inches of rain per year! Within this rain shadow are a number of beautiful places that enjoy the beauty of low rainfall, while tremendous watershed occurs nearby, most of which flows into the ocean, and there will never be a water shortage!

Happy Independence Day David Webster 2016-07-04 | We are a part of the greatest nation that ever lived.... the one who found freedom and tamed the wilderness. We are also a part of one of the greatest transitions in history, where the visions that Americans dreamt and made real... are the aspirations of others around the world.We have facilitated the creation of a world on the move, yet now that families and nations are intertwined, we question the costs of that transportation on our planet.We are a nation where capitalism determines our direction as we all seek out the job that pays the best and the opportunity that creates a better lifestyle.Wisdom understands that an entire world that lives as Americans live may consume our planets resources and output tremendous waste. This means that the example we lead by must be considerate of not just the monetary gains, but also of the condition and the treatment of our planet. The internet has opened the eyes of the public to peer into any sector of our ways. I foresee a country who's future is bright! One that takes advantage of the new technologies in our hands. I see a Washington Phone App that takes away the need for central buildings and meeting places, where Congress and the Senate can work part-time from home with little cost, and there is public oversight at every level, and States, Counties, and Cities can follow suit. I see virtual courtrooms where juries watch from home... with recent technology, changes are coming!I see phone applications where students help teach other students with interactive gaming and visual aids, where students learn in an hour or two per day what they learn in 6 or 7 today, and learning levels are tracked and scored.... where teachers will be needed to facilitate sports, music, art, and nature hikes instead of lectures, tests, and grading.I see the homes of the future... self powered and self contained, outputting no waste to our oceans. As technology helps us to fly, I see us picking up our roads and giving our forests more room to grow.I see a bright future on the horizon, one that can be embraced! This Nation has a role to play that leads the world by example! Let's use the wisdom we have gained and the mistakes we've made to help others to be wise with our world. Let us celebrate our heroes who have paved the way to the freedom we now enjoy! The Army, the Marines, the Navy, the Coast Guard, and the Air Force, and all of those who have sacrificed for the rest of us to live in peace.
Off Grid Alaskan Adventure Ends In Catastrophe And River Rescue David Webster 2016-07-04 | BETHEL – On the North Fork Kuskokwim River, a remote stretch far from McGrath where almost no one goes, Vladimir Yakushin on Wednesday waved frantically from his small raft at a plane flying past.He was in trouble, trouble that suddenly seemed too big to get out of on his own. Overhead was an Alaska Department of Fish and Game pilot, and he couldn't negotiate a landing on the narrow, zigzagging river channel. The pilot left to summon help.Just two weeks before, Yakushin, 29, was busting with hope."Im going to Alaska, baby!!!" he posted on Facebook June 13 with a selfie. He was grinning. His hair was neatly pulled back. Bags were stacked beside him.Vladimir Yakushin, 29, is pictured on June 24, 2016, at Chleca Lakes in Interior Alaska at the partially built cabin of another adventurer that he borrowed. He had hoped to build his own cabin this summer. Alaska State Troopers rescued him from the North Fork Kuskokwim River on Wednesday.
