Listen: the first year I wanted to do this swim (last year), it was rerouted (after THIRTY ONE YEARS) due to SHARKS, and THEN, it had to be relocated due to A HURRICANE, and THIS YEAR, it’s being completely disrupted due to a worldwide pandemic.  While busily reminding myself that I am not actually a curse, I’d like to remind others that, like most charitable organizations and, indeed, like most people - these folks are really struggling.  They do so much good work on the outer Cape - especially necessary this year, with the tourist economy decimated.  Please donate if you can, share widely if you can’t, and yes, I will provide proof of life swim if you need to be convinced that I can and will swim a mile and a half to support causes I care about.

Human interventions in nature, from military bases to quarries and water towers. Outer cape, July-November 2018
