People keep trying to prop up inanimate objects to scare wildlife. We went over and righted this on, but it made no difference.

At the urging of people across the fairway, we did chase a sealion off the dock near this scarecrow. The big male didn't object much. He had been chased away earlier in the day by a guy wielding a 2' rebar. They'll be back tonight. The earplugs are ready.

We'll be hoisted onto a YachtPath ship Thursday and be in Victoria on the 13th, if the plan holds. Check out http://www.marinetraffic.com and search for Pac Acrux.
