Sunshine on Valentines Day

San Juan Island has seen just about every type of weather in the last week. Currently, it is everyone's favorite: blue skies and sunny! We are hoping this weather lasts. All of the sunshine is making it feel like summer is right around the corner. We are already gearing up for the season and taking many reservations for 2014.

While we have not seen orcas recently, there was a Grey whale that popped into Puget Sound to say "hello" earlier this week.  Grey whales are baleen whales, or mysticetes, at eat benthic invertebrates through a process called "mucking".  Grey whales lay the side of their mouth on the bottom of the sea floor and muck up the invertebrates.  This process often causes the Grey whale to have one side of its face free of barnacles and possibly a misshaped head.  We hope the Grey whales decide to visit us more often this summer!

With love in the air and cetaceans on the mind, we hope the coming season is the best yet!
