PROUD SPONSOR OF

It’s Summer! Now Hit the Road

M

EMORIAL DAY is behind us and it’s officially June. Now who’s ready for a change of scenery?

For the second year, we are going into summertime having spent a lot of time at home. Remote offices, hybrid school, Zoom events and streaming performances have kept us feeling pretty cooped up.

Now that warm weather is pulling us outside, it’s an especially good time to get away from the same four walls and enjoy the outer corners of the Chesapeake region. For some people, that means road-tripping, and for more adventurous souls, camping.

Why not combine both and travel in an RV? It’s comfortable, pet-friendly, and you have the luxury of your own bathroom. (I can’t be the only one who

sees the no-bathroom aspect of camping as a deal-breaker.)

During the early pandemic months, RVing had major advantages. It offered the ability to travel relatively safely, with members of your household and without exposure to many public spaces. As 2020 wore on, more stir-crazy people caught on, and now RVing—a travel mode that used to seem like it was mostly for retirees—is popular with families and even young people (think vintage Airstreams).

In this issue of CBM Bay Weekly, we explore several RV/campground destinations, from glamping-style resorts to sites filled with water parks and kid-friendly amenities, appealing to the Disney World crowd.

A NOAA satellite image of Hurricane Laura on August 26, 2020, one in a record-breaking year for storms.

ABOVE-AVERAGE ATLANTIC HURRICANE SEASON IN THE WORKS … AGAIN

BY MEG WALBURN VIVIANO

T

he Atlantic hurricane season officially begins Tuesday, June 1, and we’ve seen some doozies in recent years. You’ll recall that in 2020, there were so many named storms that NOAA burned through all of its alphabetical names and had to resort to a numeric naming convention.

This year is going to be busy, scien-

tists predict, but not quite as extreme as last year. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Climate Prediction Center has released its annual pre-season outlook.

NOAA forecasters say there is a 60 percent chance of an above-normal season, versus a 30 percent chance of a near-normal season and only a 10 percent chance of a below-normal sea-

son. Before you say, “Enough already!”, know that experts do not expect this hurricane season to reach the historic levels the last one did.

Scientists say there will liekly be 13 to 20 named storms, of which six to 10 could become hurricanes and three to five of those could be major hurricanes—category 3 or above. Those

storms would bring winds 111 miles per hour or higher.

“Although NOAA scientists don’t expect this season to be as busy as last year, it only takes one storm to devastate a community,” says Ben Friedman, acting NOAA administrator.

Since last season, NOAA has updated its Global Forecast System (GFS), added new Hurricane Hunter drones that fly into the lower part of storms to gather data, and upgraded its storm surge model for better predictability and accuracy.

“The forecasters at the National Hurricane Center are well-prepared with significant upgrades to our computer models, emerging observation techniques, and the expertise to deliver the life-saving forecasts that we all depend on during this, and every, hurricane season,” Friedman says.

Last year’s record-breaking season serves as a reminder to all residents in coastal regions or areas prone to inland flooding from rainfall to be prepared for the 2021 hurricane season.

“Now is the time for communities along the coastline as well as inland to get prepared for the dangers that hurricanes can bring,” says U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo.

The Atlantic hurricane season lasts from June 1 to November 30, and in the late summer NOAA usually revises its predictions based on changing conditions.

RARE MALE-FEMALE CRAB FINDS HOME AT LOWER EASTERN SHORE MUSEUM

BY MEG WALBURN VIVIANO

I

f you’ve been around the Chesapeake Bay awhile, it’s likely you know the telltale signs of whether a blue crab is male or female: red claw tips and a wide apron (or underside, to non-crab enthusiasts) indicate female, blue claw tips and a T-shaped apron mean male.

Well, there’s a new attraction at the Delmarva Discovery Museum on the Pocomoke River that will have even the most faithful crab-eater confused.

A crab that has recently taken up residence at the museum is half male, half female. Its apron is divided in half down the center, with half of each shape visible.

The unusual crab is called a bilateral gynandromorph, but commonly called hermaphrodite, the museum says. Only a few of these cases have ever been reported.

Back in 2005, the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) studied a bilateral gynandromorph pulled from the Bay by watermen David Johnson and Robert Watson of Deltaville. Neither the watermen nor the scientists had ever seen one. It even had one red claw, one blue. There were also reports of a similar crab caught off Smith Island in 1979.

Waterman Jerry Smith of Smith Island caught the newest one. He’s been crabbing for about 40 years, and rec-

VIMS scientists hope that studying bilateral gynandromorphs could provide insight on crab sexual development and breeding, and might someday help researchers trying to breed blue crabs in captivity.

The rare crab is on display in an aquarium at the museum at 2 Market Street in Pocomoke.

Pasadena Boatworks owner Rick Levin has created an educational oyster exhibit on his own backyard pier.

FLOATING OYSTER EXHIBIT HIGHLIGHTS ONE-MAN AQUACULTURE OPERATION

BY CHERYL COSTELLO

I

t’s an unexpected sight for those cruising Rock Cove off the Severn River: a large, brightly colored exhibit on a floating pier, featuring facts about oysters’ importance to restoring the Bay. It’s not a museum nor a nature center—it’s a waterfront homeowner’s own invention. It’s just down the dock from a complex oyster-growing system he built to put more oysters back in the Severn.

There are lessons to be learned for kids (and adults) from this one-of-a-kind private pier.

Built on two floating docks put together, Oyster City is a new attraction off Rick Levin’s pier. Designed to look like a minicity, it features buildings with messages about the key role oysters play in the Bay: “Just one oyster can filter 50 gallons of water a day”; “Oysters clean the Bay of algae and pollution.”

“All of this is to create awareness for kids and families to see and appreciate the oyster and what the oyster does for the Chesapeake Bay, and how it cleans the Bay and the Severn River,” Levin explains.

The exhibit includes an eye-catching faux fuel dock with mannequins, as well as cartoon oysters with googly eyes. Levin hopes the colorful PVC boards are a reason for boaters to stop along Rock Cove and learn something.

It’s a side project for the owner of Pasadena Boat Works. “I built everything,” he says. “I drove every nail and put in every screw.”

Oyster City complements the work he’s doing to raise oysters in an aquaculture farm he also built on his dock. There are 6,000 new oysters growing in cages and upwellers, in addition to thousands already planted at a “reef” Levin created near the mouth of the cove.

He hopes his exhibit will tie in with his oyster growing operation and drive the message of oyster restoration home to the next generation.

“There are so many messages. The oyster is a keystone species of the Chesapeake Bay and they’re endangered. Their population is only one percent of what it was historically.”

Preschoolers Michael, Gio, and Christian had a chance to check out the exhibit with their parents. And for 5-and-a-halfyear-old Michael, the display certainly drove the point home.

“The water needs to be clean because it would be bad for the fish. And if it were bad for the fish, they wouldn’t be able to survive,” he says.

Oyster City will stay up year-round.

BAY BULLETIN BURIED AT SEA: UNDERWATER MEMORIAL PLOTS FOR SALE IN THE CHESAPEAKE

uneral planning. It’s something no one wants to do. But a company in Gloucester County, Va., is providing a new option, especially for lovers of the Chesapeake Bay. They will permanently intern your loved one’s ashes in an underwater memorial on the floor of the Bay. A few years ago, Brian Bayford found his dad mixing cement in a bucket in the garage. Upon Bayford’s questioning, his dad admitted he was mixing his friend Pete’s ashes in the cement so he could lower Pete into his favorite fishing hole.

According to Bayford, “Casting human ashes into the water is technically illegal, though no one seems to enforce it. This occurrence gave me the idea to make underwater memorials that would be perpetual and legal.”

The approval process took several years. Bayford had to work with the EPA, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the Virginia Marine Resources Commission. “Mostly, I worked with the VMRC. While it took a while, they were very

helpful.,” said Bayford.

His company, called Reef in Peace, is now open. Reef in Peace will place a loved-one’s ashes into a concrete memorial that weighs several hundred pounds. A mostly aluminum plaque with the wording of your choice is placed on top. Then the memorial is placed in the Chesapeake Bay, or at an alternate site in Venice, Florida. The concrete is a special mix that is designed to provide a favorable home for marine organisms.

In Virginia, Bayford places the memorials at the Cabbage Patch reef southwest of Cape Charles. Customers are given the exact location and depth should they want to visit. Bayford has reservations in place for memorials in Virginia, but as yet has not placed any memorials in the water. Bayford has placed memorials at the Florida location. “People like the Florida location because the water is more shallow, and clear, so you can actually see the memorials from the surface,” said Bayford.

If you or someone you know loves the Chesapeake Bay so much they want to spend eternity in its waters, be sure to check out Reef in Peace. They have a Facebook page, and can be found at reefinpeace.com, or call 804 824-9230.

Dunkirk District Park Playground to be Replaced

The Calvert County Department of Parks & Recreation is tearing down and rebuilding the playground at the park off Route 4 over the next five to six weeks, weather permitting.

a goal of protecting the Governors Run and Parkers Creek watersheds,” says Greg Bowen, executive director of ACLT. “The GRDC parcel was the only gap in a nearly 3,000-acre corridor of protected lands along the Chesapeake Bay.” The tract was part of a 1,250-acre colonial land patent mentioned in A History of Calvert County in 1647, written

by Charles Stein.

“Lord Baltimore gave Puritans who had been banished from Virginia land patents in Anne Arundel County and in Calvert County,” Bowen says. “The 78acre parcel that ACLT purchased and preserved was also owned by the Frazier—or Fraser—family in the 1800s and was a Chesapeake Bay shipping point known as Fraser’s Landing. In later years, this location was renamed for the creek, Governors Run. A wharf at the landing served steamboat traffic.”

The property was also on ACLT’s radar because historic maps show that the site was one of the largest forested sites in the area in the mid-1800s.

The Governors Run Development Corporation took ownership of the property in 1981 without the landing or beach access. Since then, the corporation has maintained the land while considering development or preservation.

“The corporation expressed its willingness to preserve the land,” Bowen

Lighthouse and the William B. Tennison, a sailing bugeye converted to powered buy-boat.

Three design proposals were submitted for the playground and a public survey received over 600 responses from the community. A follow-up survey then narrowed down specific aspects of the two most popular designs and from the more than 195 responses a vendor was selected. Thurmont-based Playground Specialists met with CCPR staff onsite in late November for a walkthrough to finalize the design.

The second phase of the project includes construction of a splash pad, and a new tennis and pickleball complex.

The existing playground is to be demolished beginning June 28. The playground will be closed for the duration and will reopen after construction is complete. says. “Then ACLT needed to raise funds to help purchase the property.

The Maryland Rural Legacy Program was the perfect fit—it focuses on providing funding to preserve large, contiguous tracts of land and to enhance natural resource, agricultural, forestry and environmental protection. With the assistance of the Calvert County Commissioners and staff we were able to utilize Maryland Rural Legacy funds.”

The tract contains a mature hardwood forest, many portions of which have not been logged for 70 years or more. Large tracts of older forest such as this are uncommon in the region, due to the clearing of forests for timber management, agriculture, and residential and commercial development.

The property provides almost $200,000 per year in services such as stormwater attenuation, carbon sequestration, nutrient uptake, ozone removal, groundwater recharge, wildlife habitat and biodiversity potential, according to an Ecosystem Service Assessment by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources.

ACLT plans to create additional trails on the property to provide educational, scientific and cultural experiences.

“First, we will develop a management plan and then we will build trails, which, upon completion, will be open to the public,” Bowen says. “This should take less than two years.”

Putting the

RV in Travel

Find the comforts of home—on wheels

BY STEVE ADAMS

A

s summer’s arrival coincides with rising vaccination numbers and loosening health and safety restrictions, countless headlines are predicting an “unprecedented” national travel boom. In fact, “revenge travel” is now an official thing—just give it a Google if you’re curious. It just might be the phrase of 2021, just as “unprecedented” was clearly the adjective of 2020.

And while there are endless options for where to go and how to get there, along with countless ad campaigns and discounts offered to entice travelers, there’s one travel trend that was growing in popularity well before the pandemic, surged during air travel restrictions, and is showing no signs of stopping: RVing.

You’re probably at least somewhat aware of vacationing via recreational

vehicle, whether you’ve experienced it yourself or have family or friends who do it. You may have read about A-list celebs such as Matthew McConaughey and Shailene Woodley, chilling in a pimped-out Airstream or traveling in a motorhome. You have certainly seen RVs heading up and down Solomons Island Road on Friday afternoons, or overnighting in Walmart or Costco parking lots.

IT’S A LIFESTYLE

R

Ving is serious stuff. There are plenty of full-time RV influencers out there, spending 365 days a year on the road, working and schooling remotely (sound familiar?) while promoting properties, products, and a lifestyle on social media (#RVlife). And RVing no longer means roughing it like Cousin Eddie in National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, driving from one dumpy destination to another. Rather, today’s roomy RVs are basically homes, or even hotels, and most RV campgrounds, or “glamp-grounds,” boast resort-level amenities such as free, reliableWi-Fi, cable TV hookups, and pools.

Given this, it’s no surprise that RV owners are attracted to this type of travel. According to the latest GO

RVing/Cvent survey from May 2019 (well before we’d ever heard of COVID), some of the top aspects include: Affordability, with 87 percent agreeing that RVing is a cost-effective way to travel, regardless of fluctuating fuel prices, and 81 percent saying that it can save 25 percent over other travel.

Flexibility, with 69 percent touting the ability to take more mini-vacations and 68 percent reporting that they’re able to bring their pet along.

Outdoor accessibility, with 61 percent naming the opportunity to enjoy outdoor activities such as visiting state or national parks (73 percent), grilling/cooking out (72 percent), visiting historic sites, hiking, fishing and swimming with their friends and family.

The Resort at Massey’s Landing.

“RV travel gives people the chance to explore where they want, when they want, and at the pace they want,” says Saskia Boogman, director of public relations for Kampgrounds of America (KOA). “It offers a level of independence not found in other forms of travel.”

Consider Boogman’s description of RVs as “self-contained units with a high degree of both real and perceived safety and inherent social distancing [that] allow people to escape urban areas and connect to natural spaces easily,” and it’s obvious why RVing had the potential to boom in the COVID era.

MADE FOR THIS

A

nd boom, it has…

Here’s the evidence:

RoadSigns reported that shipments of RVs for 2020 were up 6 percent over 2019 despite a nearly two-month production shutdown; Boogman says there are approximately 13 million RV households in the U.S., up from 9.6 million in 2020 and 7 million in 2019.

Outdoorsy, an RV rental company reports a dramatic 4,600 percent growth in RV trips booked from April 2020 to October 2020. And it’s not appearing to slow down:

RVshare, the world’s largest peer-topeer RV rental marketplace, says 84 percent of travelers who rented an RV in 2020 are planning to rent again in 2021.

Todd Burbage, CEO of Berlin, Md.based outdoor hospitality developer Blue Water Development, says that RV travel in and around the Chesapeake reflects the national trend.

“RV camping has always been popular because it gives travelers a fun, affordable, and unique way to go where you want, when you want,” Burbage says. “Plus, today’s camping resorts are true vacation destinations in their own right, appealing to those looking for a place to not only make memories with their family but also socialize with an active and friendly community.

So, when many people were looking for an escape after months of lockdown and anxiety, it’s not surprising that we saw many travelers, whether veteran campers or first-timers, turn to campgrounds as the right choice at the right time.”

ROAD TRIPS, ANYONE?

I

ndustry leaders are bullish on the future.

“Even with other forms of travel returning, the desire to use an RV to

get outdoors and experience an active outdoor lifestyle is stronger than ever,” said RV Industry Association President & CEO Craig Kirby. “RVing has been cemented as a mainstream travel option that is here to stay. We know people plan to go RVing because of their interest in exploring the great outdoors, their newfound flexibility to work or attend school remotely, and their desire to spend time with family.

These are not short-term, pandemic-related reasons but rather speak to the long-term appeal of RVs.” Burbage thinks the Chesapeake Bay area will remain a particularly popular destination.

“As many of the license plates at our resorts prove, the Chesapeake region is seen as a convenient getaway not only for people from Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and D.C., but also many from Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and other states up and down the East Coast,” says Burbage. “The Delmarva Peninsula offers a unique combination of cool, historic beach towns, from Rehoboth down to Cape Charles, and unique places to see diverse geography and reconnect with nature, and we love that so many guests from both near and far love it as much as we do.”

IT’S A RENTAL IF YOU WANT to explore Chesapeake Country by renting an RV, borrowing one, or simply staying in a “rental RV” at a campground (yes, that’s a thing, too!)—or other camping/glamping accommodation, the good news is there are plenty of great places to stay.

Each offers something unique in terms of not only their geography but also their adult-, kid-, and pet-friendly amenities and activities, from poolside bars, playgrounds and dog beaches to hiking, biking, fishing and boating – plus the opportunity to make (if I may…) “unprecedented” memories.

Dragonfly Protectors

I

have to admit that summer is my least favorite time of the year. I do not like biting insects. The biting flies are unpleasant and really disturbing if you go into a salt marsh, but the new pesky Asian tiger mosquito is the new king of the yard.

Because they will attack day or night and are hard to see, they discourage anyone from going outside without insect repellent. This mosquito is said to be able to have 50 larvae become flying biting machines from just a soda capful of water. And that is in just two weeks.

So, once a week, I go through dumping all standing water that I can find: planters, birdbaths, downspouts, etc.

A few mosquitos still hang about.

Last year, I enlisted the help of several swift-flying specialized mosquito eaters: dragonflies.

Dragonflies can eat several hundred mosquitoes a day. The most common dragonfly in my yard is the blue darner.

They are small and grayish blue with vertical greenish stripes on the thorax.

They seem territorial and last summer one returned to the same perch for a couple of weeks. They tend to attack mosquitoes from a perch or short flights.

The second most common is the low-flying common whitetail. As their name implies, their abdomen is a bluish white and they have black bands on the middle of their wings. These drag-

A Halloween pennant dragonfly. onflies seem to like to patrol their area.

They fly a foot or two off the ground around the edge of the grass and grab the things they stir up.

Another dragonfly that occasionally came around was the Eastern pondhawk. They are bright green with some black stripes on the abdomen. They seem to like to perch nearly on the ground and blend in with the grass.

They feed by staying low and suddenly swooping up.

My most uncommon visitor is the most colorful: the Halloween pennant.

It is a golden color with three black stripes on each wing. It is a dragonfly that perches and also hovers before swooping to grab and insect. They are great for photos and fun to watch but I have only seen a couple a year visit

my yard.

To make my yard more attractive and safer for dragonflies, I do two simple things. First, I avoid using pesticides.

There is a lot of collateral damage when trying to eliminate certain insects. I did use moldy spore once for grubs.

Second, I have placed perching sticks around the gardens. I originally put the perches in for hummingbirds to rest but dragonflies started using them. So, I put out more.

I think the next thing would be to put in a year-round fish pond with plants.

Since dragonflies can take over a year to mature in their aquatic phase, the pond has to be able to over-winter.

I like the idea that a common whitetail dragonfly circling around me is my personal mosquito protector.

GARDENING FOR HEALTH

STORY AND PHOTO BY MARIA PRICE

Cottage Gardens Call For Foxglove

I

f you’re going for the look of a cottage garden, then you absolutely need to grow foxgloves (Digitalis purpurea).

They are stately flowers on tall spikes about 3 to 5 feet tall. Foxglove is also known as dead man’s bells, witch’s bells or fairy fingers.

Foxglove is among the loveliest, most famous, most important, and most dangerous medicinal plants. Its long green leaves are powdered into digitalis, a cardiac stimulant that keeps millions of heart patients alive. But for everyone else, it is extremely poisonous. A leaf chewed and swallowed may cause paralysis and sudden heart failure.

Before you put it into your garden, teach your children to not touch poisonous plants.

Foxglove is native to western Europe and was introduced in America in the 1700s. The use of digitalis was discovered in 1775 by English physician William Withering. He heard of an old woman in Shropshire who practiced folk medicine with herbs gathered in the countryside. A patient afflicted with excessive fluid retention due to

16 • BAY WEEKLY • June 3 - June 10, 2021

congestive heart failure whom Withering expected to die was allegedly cured by this healer. At the time, this condition was known as “dropsy”. From the healer’s bag of weeds, Withering was able to deduce that foxglove was the key plant in treating the edema. He also learned that foxglove is a deadly poison, as likely to stop the heart as to keep it going. For 10 years, he conducted precise experiments to determine the proper dosage. The paper he published in 1785 is a classic of medical literature.

The active components are a category of chemicals known as cardiac glycosides. The plant contains several glycosides including digitoxin, gitoxin and gitaloxin which act directly on heart muscle increasing the output in patients with congestive heart failure.

It acts as a cardio-active diuretic in conditions of edema due to heart failure.

Foxglove is easily grown from seed and prefers somewhat moist, acidic soil in dappled sun to shade. It is a biennial from the Scrophulariaceae family, and forms a rosette of long-

stalked leaves in its first year. In the second year, it grows a stem that can be 2 to 5 feet tall. The leaves are lance- or oval-shaped. Spires of white to pinkish-lavender to red thimble-shaped flowers are speckled inside with dots and form from June to September. D. lutea and D. mertonensis are both true perennials.

Thanks to its chemical constituents, foxglove is also deer resistant. It is also attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds. “Apricot Beauty” is a lovely variety. “Excelsior” produces many colors and is very tall. Plant some in your cottage garden this summer.

he day started out right. Randy Steck with two keepers at last.

Freshly anchored in the mouth of the Severn and the last rod not yet set up in our chumming attempt, the first rod had just bent over and stayed over, line pouring off of the firmly set reel drag. Yippee!

Randy Steck, a long-time sporting friend, was on my left, same side as the hard arcing rod and as he struggled to free it from the rod holder, the fish cut a sharp right in the waters out behind us. Fearing it would cross and foul the other lines, I began to bring them in, starting with the one directly in front of me.

How that fish managed to But we finally got a break and the circle and foul that particular fish cleared as it finally headed away line in its initial run will always be a toward the Eastern Shore. mystery but it took long moments to The rockfish came reluctantly and decide which direction to unravel the eventually to the side and I slid the net issue and to keep the fish free of other under it and brought it onto the deck. entanglements, the motor, the chum It was a very stout and shiny, 28-inchbags, the nav light. er, every bit a beautiful fish.

Again, we feared net, definitely a close call. The stern of disaster as the fish had continued our skiff was, of course, a maelstrom of taking line at will. We were fishing loose lines, sinkers and baits.

The rockfish bite has resumed though tempered somewhat by the sudden blossoming of May worms. The winds FISHFINDER continue to haunt anglers’ efforts and the recent rains haven’t helped either but that’s always the way it is this time of year. Trolling and chumming have been the most reliable tactics with decent results south of the bridge but far better luck north, past Swan Point.

Medium sized bucktails with sassy shads are the ticket trolling, menhaden chunks for the chum crowd and the shore anglers. catfish remain the most reliable catch but many decent stripers are being boated daily. norfolk spot have shown up in local waters but live lining hasn’t taken hold yet nor has drifting soft crab. The rockfish schools are still cruising the Bay but should settle down soon and be easier to locate. crabbing is improving daily. All is well. and I had my own hands full with another substantial run.

The fish stayed far out and deep but now we were kind of concerned that we would limit out before we really got started.

But, as I said, not to worry.

It was a big fish, extra fat and extra heavy, probably 25 pounds or so but this one was adorned with whiskers. A big blue cat. Not our first choice but great on the table. Into the cooler this one went as well.

With only one striper to go for our limit and with high hopes for easy success we resumed fishing, however the bite then went absolutely dead for the next three straight hours, not a nibble nor a rod twitch. We pulled anchor and searched, found good marks and set up again. The marks disappeared and the dead bite continued. We pulled again, searched and again no luck.

Then my phone rang and a neighbor, Frank, captain of the Downtime charter boat was on the line.

“Any luck?” “No, just one striper in the box and not another bite for forever,” I answered. “Come on up S U ND AY

north, we’re done and headed home with eight.”

Randy and I headed north, fast. Anchored directly in the Downtime’s chum slick, we felt it was now only a matter of minutes to limit out. After all we only needed one fish.

Two hours later we again sat motionless with absolutely no action. Despondent and with our patience and time run just about completely out and getting ready to leave, I had one last desperate inspiration.

Reaching inside my front pocket I located two shiny pennies. One at a time I flicked them over the stern, watching as they fluttered and flashed into the depths.

I then intoned an impromptu entreaty, “Oh mighty Poseidon, master of all the earth’s seas, take pity on these two struggling fishermen who have offered you these coppers in obeisance. Grant us the attention of your subjects, the mighty striped bass” ...or something like that.

I looked over at Randy, who was giving me a hairy eyeball, “Does that work?” he asked. “Don’t know, never tried it before.” Minutes later we hooked up with a 34-inch rockfish and were done. p

THE MOVIEGOER

BY DIANA BEECHENER

resourceful Regan. Still reeling from the loss of her father, she is at first mistrustful of Murphy’s Emmet. Murphy in turn offers a heart-wrenching performance of a broken man who’s lost his family and faith in humanity.

His only comfort is the pictures of his lost loved ones he sketches around his bunker. The duo forms a great working partnership, which builds into a genuinely sweet bond.

If you’ve decided it’s time for you and your family to head back to the movies, A Quiet Place Part II is a wonderful in-theater experience. Get your tickets and remember the joy of screaming at a jump scare.

Evelyn (Emily Blunt) braves the unknown in A Quiet Place Part II.

Cinema Two Ways Tailor moviegoing to fit your comfort level

T

his week, the moviegoer got to actually GO to the movies. A momentous event over a year in the making, I grabbed my mask, my favorite movie buddy, and bought tickets. The experience was slightly different—we got our popcorn to go, seats are carefully spaced between parties—but wholly wonderful. There is nothing quite like sitting in a dark room laughing and shouting with a group of strangers, the energy that comes from that shared experience is the reason I love movies.

If you want to return to the theaters with a movie that reminds you why big screens and great sound systems are essential to cinema, consider getting tickets to A Quiet Place Part II. The film picks up right where the first film ended, with the remnants of the Abbott family grieving for their lost patriarch, but armed with a system that can cripple the marauding aliens that have taken over the world.

Though the aliens are blind, their incredible sense of hearing means even whispering could lead to death.

Mother Evelyn (Emily Blunt: Wild Mountain Thyme) knows they have to leave their farm to survive. She packs up kids Regan (Millicent Simmonds: This Close) and Marcus (Noah Jupe: The Undoing), as well as her infant, and treks north, hoping to find other survivors. Unfortunately, Marcus finds a bear trap.

With one child grievously injured and an infant to think of, Evelyn must depend on another survivor, Emmet (Cillian Murphy: Peaky Blinders) to take them in. But Regan isn’t content to just survive any longer. After

discovering that her cochlear implant emits a frequency that cripples the aliens, she’s become determined to share it with other survivors and hopefully end the violent occupation of Earth.

Can Regan save the world with her frequency? And will the rest of the family survive her attempt?

Filled with brilliant Nicolas Bro, Lars Brygmann, Nikolaj Lie Kaas, and Mads sound editing and Mikkelsen in Riders of Justice. some genuinely tense set-pieces, A Quiet Place Part II is a film that really Stay-At-Home Cinema does benefit from a theater setting.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD

BY THE EDITORS AT ANDREWS MCMEEL SYNDICATION Wait, What?

The Tail Company, based in the United Kingdom, is starting production of its newest offering, miTail—a Bluetooth-enabled animatronic tail that wearers can control with a phone app, Nerdist reported on May 13. For example, a wearer might want to express emotions such as “frustrated and tense” or “calm and relaxed.”

Other moves include the Short Wag, the Happy Wag and the Erect Tremble. The company plans to start delivering the Kickstarter-supported products in August.

Oh, Canada

Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Porcupine Plain, Saskatchewan, had a mystery on their hands on May 7 when someone reported a load of fenceposts missing, RCMP reported on its website.

Officers opened an investigation, but the “bucktooth bandits” were quickly identified: “The stolen goods were located in a beaver dam,” said Constable Conrad Rickards. “A beaver—or beavers—helped themselves to the stash of posts and used them to help build a dam. I tried locating said beavers but they were GOA (gone on arrival).”

Don’t Go There

• A papier-mache statue of a stegosaurus, placed outside the Cubic Building in a suburb of Barcelona, Spain, had an odorous secret, The Washington Post reported. On May 22, a father and son who were admiring the statue noticed a foul stench coming from it and peered into a crack in the dinosaur’s leg. There they saw the body of a man.

The 39-year-old was reported missing just hours before he was discovered; the local police said they don’t suspect foul play. Instead, they believe the man dropped his phone in the statue’s leg and tried to retrieve it, becoming stuck headfirst. He may have been in the statue for a couple of days, authorities said.

• Staff at the El Paso Zoo in Texas are preparing to press charges against a woman who jumped into a spider monkey exhibit on May 22 and fed Flamin’ Hot Cheetos to the animals, the El Paso Times reported. Zookeepers found out about the stunt through Instagram, where someone posted video of the woman underneath a waterfall, with the monkeys just feet away. “This young lady decided to hop a fence, climb through some bushes, drop down into a 4-feet-deep moat, walk across the moat and then try to feed the spider monkeys,” zoo director Joe Montisano said. “It was stupid. She’s very fortunate that it didn’t have a worse outcome for her or the animals.” While the woman hasn’t been named, her employer, Lovett Law Firm, recognized her and she was fired from her job there.

Police Report

Two teenagers on their way home from a graduation party in the early hours of May 23 made the night even more memorable when their car crashed into the roof of a home in Eureka, Missouri, outside St. Louis. Authorities told KSDK-TV that the driver lost control, rolled down an embankment, flipped over a fence and crashed front-end first into the master bathroom of the home.

Startlingly, there were no injuries from the crash; the two teens escaped through the master bedroom, and two occupants of the home, who were sleeping at the time, were unharmed.

Bright Ideas

• On May 25, New York City councilwoman Helen Rosenthal virtually attended a finance committee meeting, commenting on school classroom sizes and education funding, as she shifted her focus back and forth between the camera and ... the road. She was driving her car during the meeting, the New York Post reported. During her time as a council member, she has advocated for improving bike lanes and expanding speed camera use, but since 2013, the license plate registered to her car has received 62 traffic violations, including three tickets for speeding in a school zone, all in 2020.

• Adele Belizaire, 54, was held in the Pinellas County (Florida) jail after a stunt she pulled to “blow off steam” on May 11, The Smoking Gun reported.

Belizaire, frustrated with her loss of nearly $400 playing slot machines at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Tampa, called the casino on her cellphone that evening from her hotel in Clearwater Beach and said, “I left a bomb in your casino.” What she failed to remember was that as a member of the casino’s Player’s Club, her phone number was on file. In her confession, she admitted that she has “anger issues.”

Compelling Explanation

When Lee Bowman’s neighbors in Sioux City, Iowa, failed to mow his lawn by the afternoon of May 23, after he had asked them to, he visited their home to complain, then tried to peel a registration sticker off one of their vehicle license plates. Some time later, however, police and firefighters were called to the neighbors’ home, which was on fire. Investigators found a pile of sticks and plywood piled against the side of the house and evidence that gas had been used to start the fire.

Bowman, 53, told police that he had seen the fire burning but didn’t call 911 because it wasn’t any of his business.

But the Sioux City Journal reported that the kindling came from Bowman’s home. The fire caused an estimated $3,000 damage to the home, and the family requested a no-contact order from the court. Meanwhile, Bowman was held at the Woodbury County Jail on suspicion of arson.

Precocious

Kashe Quest, 2, of Los Angeles has been accepted into Mensa, the high-IQ society. FOX11-TV reported on May 26 that she is the youngest member in the group’s history. “At about 17, 18 months, she had recognized all the alphabet, numbers, colors and shapes,” said her mother, Sukhjit Athwal. Quest can identify all 50 states by shape and location on a map, is learning Spanish and sign language, and can identify elements on the periodic table. Quest’s IQ is measured at 146; the average American’s is 100. Athwal admits that Quest “is still a normal 2-year-old where we have negotiations, we have tantrums ... We’re kind of going at her pace and we want to just make sure that she is youthful for as long as she can be.” p Send your weird news items with subject line WEIRD NEWS to WeirdNewsTips@amuniversal.com.

Has anyone gotten your goat by irritating you to anger? Did you even know you had a goat to get? Well, this saying had its beginnings in horse racing. Apparently, thoroughbred racehorses are an unstable bunch when stabled, and need a stabilizing friend to stabilize their instability. So, stablers established the stabilization practice of stabling a goat with the horse to reestablish calm. But if someone wanted to destabilize the horse in order for it to lose a race, the detestable method was to steal the stablemate goat. Got it? Well, give it back.
