New Breaker/Whales
The RV park owners changed the main breaker on our pole on Monday. Since then we've been able to keep it cool inside the RV. We hope that trend continues. I'm in a lot better mood when I don't get sweaty when I'm doing nothing. My whale watching pictures turned out pretty good. We have been whale watching in Maine, Washington and Alaska. One thing that I've never seen is a lot of seals in the water. The seals went wherever the whales were feeding. The seals ate and played while the whales ate. There were 500 to 1000 seals playing and swimming around these massive whales. They were so fun to watch. We saw quite a few whales (humpbacks). Our boat was a 20 foot pontoon boat with two outboard motors attached to it. It was pretty wavy and a couple of people got sick. It had room for 24 people including the captain and the first mate. We weren't very far from the shore (maybe 3 miles) to see the whales. These whales are 40 - 50 feet long. One whale liked the boat and kept sitting right underneath us. He put on quite a show. One time he even stuck his head out of the water to get a better look at us. The first mate was crying because she was so excited. She said that she's been doing this for a year and has never seen anything like this. She said that if a whale breaches (jumps out of the water), she'll jump into the water. We were hoping even more that a whale would breach so that we could see her jump in the water. I'll try to post some pictures of whales and also of Hearst Castle tonight.

Hi! It's great to hear what you've been up to! Glad you have the A/C working again! We need some of that up here right now. I'm thinking maybe we'll go to the beach tonight! Have a great day.
