Here's some joy! Dams gone, Natives kayaking the length of the Klamath and catching fish as fat as 'footballs,' water cold and testing safe (from 58% safe to 100%!), hope for a near-extinct population of spring Chinook. Nature is resilient when humans see ourselves as part of it and help it heal.

Spencer's Island #NS, my mom was from here. I grew up eating burgers and fries and fish 'n chips from paper bowls with a wooden fork at the end of what was the wharf. Almost every weekend and holiday and summer vacations were spent here. It's home to me, where I'm at peace. #BayOfFundy #NovaScotia

Heavy stone that once filled a wharf, has been spread along the beach from the Bay of Fundy tides

The former site of the Spencer's Island wharf, heavy stone was spread across the beach nearly 30m from the wharf by the Bay of Fundy tides
