I see the whole sheriff's department showed up. (Both of them). That parade looks like a Bath parade.

ROTFFLMFAO for you "City Slickers!!!"

Population, shmopulation, what about density??? Onancock has a denser population than Bath!!

Onancock, VA: 1300 folks living in 1.05 sq. miles = 1238 folks per square mile. That's living azzhole to elbow!!

Bath, ME: 8042 folks in 13.22 sq. miles = 608 folks per square mile, twice as much breathing space as crowded Onancock...

You city dwellers!! My town, Bristol, has 35 folks per square mile, 2755 folks spread over 78.23 square miles, which translates to 0.05 peeps per acre. Now that's true small town boonies living!!

Data confirms growing dead zone in Chesapeake Bay
pressherald.com/2019/08/20/data-confirms-growing-dead-zone-in-chesapeake-bay/

Associated PressAugust 20, 2019

ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Maryland scientists have been warning of a growing “dead zone” in the Chesapeake Bay. Now the numbers are in, confirming their dire warnings were correct.

Natural Resources Department data shows an area with little to no oxygen spread to 2 cubic miles by late July, making it one of the worst in decades. By comparison, July dead zones averaged about 1.35 cubic miles for the past 35 years.

The worst section includes the lower Potomac and Patuxent rivers and much of the Bay, from Baltimore to the mouth of the York River.

University of Maryland environmental scientists say heavy rains washed wastewater and agricultural runoff into the bay and produced oxygen-stealing algae.

Scientists fear it could harm crabs, oysters and the state’s seafood industry.
