Penobscot Marine Museum Nice reception yesterday in the library reading room to honor PMM's interpreters and volunteers. Deliciously catered by museum staff donations, the party was well-attended -- although star interpreter Barb Perry couldn't be here -- we missed her! Brief remarks by Niles, Pam, Kevin and Matt acknowledging our interpreters and volunteers. Thanks all!

Penobscot Marine Museum Q: How many guys does it take to put a lobster tank on a truck?
A: How many you got?
With the museum exhibits closed for the season, the lobster tank in the Marine Science Lab goes home.

I don't see any lobsters in that tank. Did you have an end of the year lobster bake?

Actually the lobster and other critters that live in the tank are not allowed to be released back into the wild.... , and the tank is going as a loaner to a local school for the winter, back to the museum in the spring. That would be my butt in the picture.....
