Harbor Seal and the Beach!

After the fog burned off...
Day of rest part two!

Thought I might upload a few killer photos from today's meanderings before I head over to our PM lecture at Stanford. We will be wrapping up our discussion of Grapes of Wrath this evening and should be pushing into the next phase of our close book study first thing Monday morning. Dr. Mary Adler should be stopping by for a continuation/revisitation of her lecture on dialectical voice and pedagogy.

Sunny planking!
This morning was a bit cool and overcast but around noon the fog burned off and made way for an extremely sunny and all around inspirational day outside... I decided to take a long hike (not that long, maybe 8 miles round trip) up the beach and back. I wanted to take advantage of the good light today and photograph the harbor seals "planking" on the rocks. The seals are "hauling-out"to conserve body heat and therefore lower their calorie-intake requirements (among other reasons). Really a funny sight to behold...


Hauling out and smiling in the foggy AM
