Welcome Se'lhaem Buoy!

A new buoy has been deployed in Bellingham Bay. NANOOS member, CMOP (the Center for Coastal Margin Observation and Prediction), through its education partner University of Washington, deployed the buoy in partnership with the Northwest Indian College (NWIC) and Western Washington University (WWU). 

The Lummi Nation has given the new buoy its name, Se'lhaem, after an island located in Bellingham Bay near the mouth of the Nooksack River. The island, which disappeared some time ago, was important to the Lummi community as a place for harvesting shellfish. UW worked with the NWIC, WWU, and the Lummi Nation Natural Resources Department to site the buoy and design its features.

  5. chachkies is the yiddish word for trinkets and collectables, AKA dusk collectors that you would find in an old ladys house.An immense amount of girly trinkets that literally take over the whole house and bathroom. Little metal figurines, little ceramic pets, little shoes that obviously cant be worn, shit that chicks buy at a Hallmark store!
