Lobstah Ladies

This year I've had some fun publicity opportunities. The first was participating in a "Lobster Ladies" calendar that Luke's Lobster compiled to highlight women involved in different aspects of the Maine lobstering industry. I was invited to be "Miss March", as a lobster scientist:

Then New York Magazine's blog was interested in doing a video on some of the ladies who participated in the calendar and I agreed. It seemed like a fun opportunity to meet a lady captain and have a relaxing afternoon on her boat. After all, I don't often go for pleasure rides these days. It turned out that the whole attendance (2 publicity reps from Luke's Lobster, who facilitated the event, and the 2 videographers from NY Magazine) was female. So we had a fun ladies cruise culminating in a delicious lobster bake hosted by Luke's in Tenants Harbor. A much needed relaxing and enjoyable respite after a busy day. Here's the video:
