Yep, it was a "Monday on a Friday"... we had one of those rare days where we couldn't find a whale to save our souls. Oh, we worked hard at it... no Orca reports, no Minke sightings... no whales anywhere. I think I talked to about 25 other captains all around the area, and no one had whales.
Frankly, the naturalist onboard did a great job with keeping the guests entertained and informed. I had to chuckle a few times, listening to her. We had guests who were understanding, fortunately. At the end of the ride, I let them know that we were sorry they didn't get to see any kind of whale, but it wasn't from lack of trying. They still thanked us for a great time as they got off the boat.
Back in the office, there was a package waiting for me. A friend from the NuWa forum had asked our address here. He is from the area near where we used to live in the Black Hills... I didn't know what to expect, but thought it might have something to do with James Photography. I was wrong.
When I opened the package, I found this...
How cool is that?! It is a bag that has our boat name on it AND kitty paw prints! It can be used as a carrying bag OR worn as a light backpack. Thank you, Don - we are very appreciative of your thoughtfulness!
Of course, little Izzy was very curious... and she fits in the bag, too!
Sure makes that "Monday on a Friday" end on a very nice note! :-)
