Today is, indeed, the anniversary of Columbus's first sighting of Dominica (not to be confused with the Dominican Republic.) I have visited Dominica for short stays on a couple of occasions and it is an amazing island full of natural wonders and a great place for all kinds of outdoor activities.
Ribs languished in relative obscurity for years and would probably remain there today had they not been perfected by an enterprising and dedicated San Francisco restaurateur and then brought to the world's attention by a passionate San Francisco writer.

I'm not that kind of reader but Wikipedia says that Columbus stumbled upon Domenica on 3 November 1493.

The photo is of boat-building on Dominica.
It's got me thinking about ribs for lunch.

Isn't it remarkable how great writing just stays in your head?
Ribs too. And I've been frickin singing Please Come to Boston all day long.
Something tells me that a wooden boat is no match for the narrow side of a 2x12 secured in the ground.
