Harbor Splash is an organized jump into the Baltimore Harbor on Sunday, June 23, 2024, at Bond Street Wharf in Fells Point. This event is a celebration of the collective effort that's been taken toward creating a swimmable harbor in Baltimore city. As Mayor Brandon Scott put it, “We all own this collectively, owning up to what the harbor was but also saying, this is where we are now and this is where we’re going to go... I know the data, I know the water is safe, and that’s why I’ll be jumping in the harbor." Join Waterfront Partnership and our partners, including Mayor Brandon Scott, when we jump into the harbor this June. Spots for swimmers are limited: sign up here to be notified when registration opens: https://lnkd.in/ecm3ZSn9 Learn about the work being done to clean up the harbor here: https://lnkd.in/eJy6RqRm

Chances of a White Christmas for Albany. Normally about a 42% chance and 90-95% chance for the Adirondacks and mountains of Vermont. This year it is likely going to be a 0% chance for a White Christmas for much of the Capital Region.

The Trees of the Augusta National: Part 2 Southern Live Oak After getting dropped off at Founders’ Circle, a golfer may walk through the Augusta National clubhouse and out the back door towards the practice putting green. Upon walking out the back door, they will find themselves at the high point of the course and under the shade of “The Big Oak”. The Big Oak at the Augusta National is a large southern live oak (Quercus virginiana) with sprawling branches and a wide crown for which the species is typically known. During the tournament, this tree provides shade to the members of the club, their guests, the players of the tournament, the media, and other important figures. The tree is roped off at the dripline, preventing patrons from going under its stately branches. Under this tree players can be seen answering (or avoiding) questions from the media on their way to and from the course. Other figures can be seen having important conversations about the future of golf or making small talk while having a drink. The tree itself predates the Augusta National Golf Club and is estimated to have been planted in the 1850’s when the property was a nursery. The simple leaves of live oaks are leathery evergreen blades with a pointed or rounded tip and are about 4 inches long and 1.5 inches wide. They are alternately arranged on the stem. The bark is grayish brown, with a blocky texture that separates into deep, scaly ridges. The wood of live oaks is some of the heaviest of native hardwoods, which is why it was previously used for building sailing ships. Some of the first publicly owned forests were live oak forests purchased for Navy shipyards. Today, southern live oak serves primarily as an ornamental tree species in parks and yards. It is also the state tree of Georgia. I would imagine that the soil under The Big Oak becomes extremely compacted during the tournament due to the high amount of foot traffic and would require a soil decompaction treatment afterwards to make sure that The Big Oak stays happy and healthy. #golf #trees #masters #themasters #mastersweek #augustanational
