Episode 3: 2,000 Gallons of Acid, and a Submarine Full of Pancake Batter
The H-3 was a submarine that ran aground in heavy fog along the Northern Coast of California in 1916. It’s not a ship my Dad salvaged, but it’s one of his favorite stories for the incredibly unique salvage plan used by a local lumber company. This episode is about taking a step back and looking out for unusual solutions. For parents of a kid with ADHD, suggestions from the more neurotypical world tend not to work. The narrative in this episode is about being willing to stand up in the face of advice from someone who just doesn’t get it.
