Erika and I celebrated an anniversary on 17 June 2002 at the Quinault Beach
Resort and Casino north of Ocean Shores. It was windy and rainy, but we
were comfortable on our upper story balcony. There was a large low pressure
cell offshore. We saw thousands of shearwaters and one Laysan Albatross.
All flew south, just off shore. Dan Tallman
