There’s a way of life that’s defined this region for generations.  Working the water is in the DNA of some families.  On this edition of What Matters, we go to the water’s edge for a look at a day in the life of a waterman.  We take a look at the health and welfare of our area’s waterways, specifically, the mighty Chesapeake Bay.  Joining host Cathy Lewis:  Christy Everett, Virginia Assistant Director For Hampton Roads at The Chesapeake Bay Foundation; Dr. Brian Payne, Assistant Professor of History at Old Dominion University; and Dr. Carl Hershner, Director Of The Center For Coastal Resources Management, Virginia Institute For Marine Sciences.
