Ten years ago I was desperately trying to sink my teeth into my new Portland neighborhood. My old Portland neighborhood, where I had spent the previous 25 years, was 2,500 miles away and I was in a real sink or swim situation.

From River to Imagination: Portland Museum Welcomes 50-Foot Shrimp Boat
This spring, something extraordinary set sail—without even touching the water. A 50-foot shrimp boat, built in 1949 by Robert Guidry, once cut through Gulf Coast waters and more recently floated (and occasionally sank) along the Ohio River.
