Unexpected visit with Kerri
On a whim, I decided to go back up to Santa Rosa and see Kerri, who was there visiting some friends from college. We had a great time after not seeing each other for, what, a week?

Whales, seals and a paddle in the surf
... the mighty prius took us off to the overcast and miserable seaside once again. However, we sort of took a wrong turn, saw a bunch of people standing or sitting on low chairs on the headland (Bodega Heads) with binoculars and huge cameras so joined in. We saw some whales which was a nice surprise. When we got back to our car there was another black prius parked next to us but it was much cleaner and newer than ours. We checked it out and I think ...
