Tuesday morning we suited up for the chilly deck, started up the fire pit and settled in for morning coffee. We were treated to quite a show - a pod of humpback whales was feeding right in front of us. Almost impossible to capture a photo because they’re so quick that they’re back down as soon as you train the camera on them, but imagine the scene: chilly foggy AM snuggled in toasty clothes, dancing flames and out on the water whales cresting and breaking through the water line straight up as they feed. [Linda tells me they swim around in circles to gather the fish and then launch themselves upwards to gobble as many as they can. ]
Pretty great!
In the afternoon, I drove down to Palo Alto to visit my old and much loved friend, Elisabeth. Once again could kick myself for not taking a picture , but as always, we started talking and I forgot everything else.
