What a Fish Means
I love seafood ever since I was a little kid ordering shrimp cocktail off the kid’s menu on our annual family beach vacation. But the one fish that’s been the most impactful on me, in addition to being one of my favorite meals, has been salmon. I didn’t really understand salmon until I moved from the East Coast to Seattle, in the middle of the Pacific Northwest. Before moving here, salmon was just another (delicious) entrée. But the Pacific Northwest-from California all the way up to Alaska-is where fresh salmon comes from. And it’s also one of the most important fish in the region-scientifically, economically, politically, and culturally.

The Soldier's Locket
The Soldier reached his right hand into his pocket and gave the locket a quick rub, just to make sure it was still there. It wasn’t unusual for a soldier to carry around a trinket or charm for good luck. If anyone else saw it, they’d assume it was just another heart-shaped locket, probably with a picture of a lover or mother on the inside. Even if they held it for a second, they wouldn’t notice anything strange about it. You’d have to really examine the locket to realize it wasn’t actually made of gold.
