POTW: Nature in Telegraph Cove

Eagle

 

Dec 6, 2018

My husband and I have a 30 foot Catalina we keep in Nanaimo.  

This past October we drove to Telegraph Cove with friends and spent a day of wonder cruising the area as part of a fundraiser for MERS (Marine Education and Research Society).  We were graced with the presence of humpback whales, sea lions, and eagles on a warm sunny day.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
