An excellent example in death as in life. There are many more of us than you’d imagine who likewise would prefer to see the bones of our ancestors and ourselves above ground and illustrating the intricate beauty of our skeletal structure rather than being buried or burned, though social conventions, as artificial as they are, and the practical aspects of storing and/or luggin’ around an inamimate bag of bones, need to be respected….darn.
Were I in Port Angeles now, I’d go down to the Salty Dawg and hoist one in his honor. Cheers.

I hope this doesn’t sound too hokey, but I can’t ever look at that photo of Krantz and his wolfhound, locked in an eternal dance, and not get a little choked up.

I know that to some folks the skeletons might seem a little morbid, but to me it’s just beautiful on so many levels; not least of which being the dedication to learning and discovery that Krantz exemplified.
