Retired WHOI Captain AD Colburn sets off a small cannon to welcome Atlantis back to Woods Hole.

It's the local news roundup, where we discuss stories making regional headlines this week.

Among the stories we will be talking about: a new study finds some areas of the Vineyard have 150 deer per square mile, raising concerns about increases in tick borne illness; MASS DOT plans to reconfigure the Orleans rotary into a more modern roundabout; and the Research Vessel Atlantis returns to Woods Hole after a nearly four-year deployment.
