Memorial Day Summer Kickoff: Part 1

In celebration of Memorial Day, Peter and Tyler tour the American Shoreline to learn what summer has in store. We begin with Dr. Robert Buckingham, Tyler's father, who is enjoying the holiday  weekend in Hilo, Hawaii. We then zip over to Galveston Island in Texas to speak with Reuben Trevino, Director of Operations for the Galveston Park Board of Trustees. Reuben explains the work that his team will undertake to ready the beaches, accesses, bathrooms, and parking for one of the busiest weekends of the year. Next, it's up to Astoria, Oregon to speak with Steve Fick, the owner of Fishhawk Fisheries company that processes salmon, Dungeness crab, ground fish, and shrimp. We discuss the the current and future prospects of his business as the fisheries of the Northwest are impacted by Climate Change.   It's a great start to kick off the Memorial Day weekend!
