A couple years ago, Steve and I went to San Francisco and came across the strangest thing: hundreds of seals basking in the sun on Pier 39 at Fisherman's Wharf! Apparently, they showed up one day in 1989, and have been meeting there ever since - until now. For no apparent reason, the seals have abandoned their favourite hang out. Sure they're noisy and smelly, and I'd probably be extremely annoyed if something of the sort showed up at Confederation Basin, but the abruptness of it all seems a little sad and way too random for comfort.Tuesday, January 12, 2010
