Thanks dt!
I just charged the battery and cleared the memory card... It still had all the photos taken at the New Year's trip and lost mission discovery! The
multi part trip report (starting with bajalou's last turkey feast) begins here: http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=36237
After Lou's party, we went to BajaRob's... but first we had to make a quick stop on Shell Island:
Looking forward to getting back out there, tomorrow night!

In Vegas packing to head South June 1st. No special place, I hope to make it to BA. Being trying for 2 summers now. Somebody once said 3rd time is
the charm. First stop will probable be Sharkey's to have a beer. Watch out for that mustard 79 VW van as it does not travel very fast.

Not physically in Baja, where I belong. Mentally in Baja, perhaps.
I'll be at the barn. I'm thinking about riding Handy over to the Memorial program at the cemetary across the street. There will be a fly by and a gun
salute. It will be good exposure for him, and a good time for me to remember why I have the day off.
Hope everyone has a safe weekend.

oh, and I'll be hanging out with my new turkey poults too.

I think you can eat sea lions - didn't the eskimos eat them? They were harvested nearly to extenction in the late 1800's by the Russians and Chinese
(I think) for their oil, which was used for oil lamps and the industrial revolution, and for their fur. Half the world's population of pinipeds breed
and haul out at San Miguel - some 30,000. I think they're still protected, and I would suspect that some are still killed for food and fur, but there
is no danger to their healthy population. So you see what some human beings can do to replenish a species when other human beings are so ignorant as
to nearly wipe them off the face of the earth. They could be extinct now, but for the efforts of mankind. We can do the same for other species -
like turtles. Learning about some of the other conservation efforts at San MIguel was really interesting. The island fox there was down to only 4
pair. They captured them and bred them for quite a while, and now there are something like 125 on the island. The Park Service removed all the bald
eagles from the island (relocated them to the mainland), because they eat the foxes. There are many species like lizards, voles, bats, snakes,
flightless goose, giant mouse, owl, caracara which existed there at one time, but wiped out by the Chumash occupation over 6,000 years. It's even
speculated that the Chumash was responsible for the extinction of the pygmy mammoth that existed there in some numbers at one time. Human and
mammoths co-existed on the island some 10,000 years ago.
