Baker Beach is like the wilderness. It was my first time being there in years.

Despite the sadness we felt at seeing this dead mammal on the beach, we were also thrilled to see such a creature up so close. The baleen, vents in expanding throat, large barnicles, and huge pectoral fins. It was as impressive as I would have imagined it being. I'm not sure why it died. These things happen, I like to think naturally. It was an adventure.
Wow! Amazing. You don't see that every day. My boys will think this is really cool.
