There's a ballena in my garage


I love our garage- especially the rockwork and arches of the shade pergola. I've spent hours acid washing and applying sealer to those rocks, working on the doors, painting the building, and maintaining the finished product. We probably pass by there 25 times per day sometimes.



A couple of days ago Cano, the water truck driver, was waiting for our cisterna to fill and was standing a few feet from one of the stone pergola posts, staring at it with his head tilted a little to the side.

"Ballena" he said when I came out to investigate, and of course I looked towards the ocean. "No, aqui!" and he pointed here



Thanks Cano, I'll never be able to look at my lovely sombra the same again.

Bottom right stone looks like a Pacifico Ballena to me.
