Take the ferry over to Bainbridge, grab a coffee, go to a bookstore, get a nice lunch looking back over the bay towards Seattle, hit up the brewery while waiting for a ferry back. It’s a great way to spend the day and clear your head!

I love that he uses props in so many photos! Horns, pipes, hats, etc. Everyone seems to be having fun, which is in contrast to a lot of other pictures from that era.

Bad bot.

The archive is fantastic. I especially like Matsuras humorous photos.

Had that happen once off I90 😤

I love the city bus at the end!

What did you get them on?

No. Paperwork is easy

Did you need to hire a lawyer to do it?

That is really interesting. It makes sense that whales giving birth and their babies would be vulnerable. It sounds like the coyotes coming after pregnant heifers/birthing heifers/newborn calves where I grew up.

There is “an ask a lawyer” sub Reddit…

Yes, Coconut Island off Kaneohe is a hammerhead breeding ground but they are not known to ever attack anyone that is not already bleeding and in serious trouble. Most of the people that die off of Kaneohe (usually young Marines) die because they over estimate their water skills and not sharks. They may end up bit/eaten by a shark but it is not the reason they die. I lived there for many years. Yes, it is definitely bad publicity either way. Maui has a worst shark problem than Oahu in the winter when the whales are giving birth but I think this story has more to it than we know at this time.

So, a shark is circling your wife & you decide to swim back to shore without knowing where she is and if she is safe? I don't know about you but unless I really didn't care about my wife or whomever, I am not leaving unless I know I cannot do anything to help.

Knew a guy in the Coast Guard stationed near Kaneohe. He said that they were instructed to report people "lost at sea" and never as a shark attack. It was bad publicity.

He said a wind surfer disappeared when blown off course into an area known as a hammerhead breeding ground. Everybody knew what happened to him but the official report was "lost at sea".

Looking at the greater Seattle area. Willing to drive up to 2 hours

If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... the A-Team

I've heard great things about Bellingham! I'll look into it. Thank you!

> to clog up the hiking trails!

You're not IN traffic. You ARE traffic.

I think you'll enjoy Bellingham.

Husband did it.

Washington is a big state, what area are you looking for cake day activities?
