Excellent! I don’t normally comment, but this is so informative and so interesting that Ms. Sarah deserves a hearty “thank you!”.
Michael Hagan says:
Wonderful series, please keep them coming.
Conbert Benneck says:
Sarah, thanks for your wonderful series. Your descriptions of the “water’s edge” adds immensely to the enjoyment of sailing. The walk along the beach suddenly is see with totally different eyes thanks to your wonderful teaching.
Lawrence Pinto says:
Kudos. Five stars. Very few teachers can weave together such different disciplines…geology, marine science, ecology, etc. and tell such an interesting and coherent story. I love all her videos. Keep them coming Sarah!
Jim Sewell says:
Excellent
Joel Zackin says:
Bring on more! Sailing, rowing, power boating, and walking the beach/shore is much more interesting knowing what we are looking at!
Stephen Horsley says:
That was really excellent. I’ll be looking at rocks and bedrock with renewed interest around the coast no. Hauraki Gulf New Zealand.
Harold Wheeler says:
Could listen and learn for hours, Sarah is an excellent teacher. Always wanting more.
carey harmon says:
excellent presentation
Christopher Martin says:
Excellent. It’s a dull day when you don’t learn something new, and with this video I learnt many new things. Thank you.
Anthony Sarcone says:
Very enjoyable and informative. It is believed that Plymouth Rock is also a glacial erratic.
Ian Douglas says:
Enjoyable video, as always, Sarah.
Very clear, very informative.
Thanks!
David Tew says:
Glacial erratics are a wonder. One of the more famous ones in Maine is Bubble Rock, perched on one of the highest spots on Mt. Desert. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acadia_National_Park#/media/File:A079,_Acadia_National_Park,_Maine,_USA,_balanced_rock,_2002.jpg
Steve Brookman says:
That really was a good video, and timely too. I took a lot of pictures yesterday of the wonderful rock formations lining the shore on Long Cove during a TSCA row. The lesson in geology will make the images much more interesting. Thanks Sarah.
Keith Hammitte says:
I am really enjoying this series
Bradford Preston says:
Wonderful series – thanks!
Michael Barra says:
Thank you so much for this video. Sarah’s knowledge and her teaching ability is phenomenal.
She gave me a new perspective when looking at stone of any kind, from pebbles to bedrock to granite, and the herbal and marine life surrounding them, and the history of their origin and development over thousands of years, and the fact that it’s still further developing during our lifetime. Thanks again.
Chris Heape says:
Brilliant! Thank you, most excellent examples and explanation. Geology similar to Dartmoor UK, where I am from.
Dave Dickmeyer says:
Thanks for a great series. We’ll all have a better understanding of Mother Earth with Sarah and OCH on board!
