Bodkin Island

I had thought that the pertinent Bodkin island history would land right during the time that the internet has trouble picking up, but I found a NYT obituary for a lawyer named Richard Allen Earle, who bought the 1 acre Bodkin island in 1980, which came with a hunting lodge. He owned it until 1995, when he gave it to the state as a duck habitat. An indication that it was worn down and obviously useless by then. A fire set by trespassers in 1987 seemed to precipitate rapid degradation. The graphic above is from a 1991 proposal to restore Bodkin island (never implemented).

The osprey nest must have been a fine thing, back in the day - there are lots of osprey on the Chesapeake when it is run right. Here is an osprey nest from somewhere else in the area. The osprey eat almost all fish, so the ducks could nest there in harmony, and the osprey would make some of the other predators back off from the nesting area.

No more ducks at Bodkin now, and the pine tree and osprey nest are long gone. Here is a link from 1998:

and an even sadder one from 2012:

Here is a very recent, but undated image:

And, horrifically, you can see what it looks like "now", at:

Needless to say, I don't offer much hope about treasure nowadays. Although Meatball recently thought he dimly remembered Roger telling him the treasure had been found. Was it from here, or was it the other treasure? ...

What was the treasure here? The opening chakra name, "tesseract" might be a clue. That is what mathematicians call a theoretical fourth dimensional "cube" - with the fourth dimension rendered in 3D perspective, analogous to a three dimensional cube rendered in two dimensional perspective.

Here is a nice one - there are small ones made of silver that would be a nice little treasure.

Probably was not this tesseract:

While Stan Lee had introduced the Cosmic Cube in the 1960's (!), the MCU had not renamed it the Tesseract until after 2010.
