I can't believe Mr. & Mrs. Goat are Weekenders now.

Tetra, congrats!

Thanks for the entertaining thread today. No drinking tonight, so we can do it again tomorrow, eh?



Guess what I saw in the pouring down rain today at the beach?












An Orca! That's right, eat your hearts out. He (she) was an adult I believe with a fin probably 5-6 feet tall. He was only about less than a hundred yards offshore...moving north along a long open area so I saw him for a while. Like 15-20 minutes. A.Mazing. That huge black fin rolling up and down in the water and the blow of water when he exhaled. Remember I talked about salmon a couple weeks back? There is a gathering of salmon near this beach. Lunch!

It was a bit odd, they usually travel in family groups, but I only saw that one. Maybe tomorrow he'll bring the family!!!! That's the closest I've ever been to a wild Orca, and definitely the best view I've ever had.
