Lincoln's Log

Here is a plug for my friends who comprise the Jazz Mariners.

The jazz combo will be playing tonight June 26 from 10 to midnight at the Greenwich Tavern, formerly Palomino, formerly Boxing Cat Grill – across the street from the Mobil Express station on The Post Road near the Hyatt.

Jazz Mariners feature Jay Louden, keyboard, Lou Rupnik, tenor saxophone, John Ehlers, guitar, and Adam Shulman, double bass. They will be playing tunes you know.

Support live music in Greenwich.

The biological genus is limulidae – commonly known as horseshoe crab – which is arguably the ugliest living creature on the planet.

But their resistance to all kinds of biological threat is legendary, and their survival since pre-historic times is a puzzle to scientists.

For several months a year in New England, they breed along our shores. At this time of the year, you can spot them in abundance, such as this video along the shore near Old Greenwich Yacht Club will attest.
