This is about the clearest it’s been all day.
2010 at the flats… Friend George set the national record with a bike he built. I think this year he had a young girl take it to the record.
Side note: He’s a master metal mover with a great mind an engineer at heart with the ability to make it happen!!!
Super charged 100cc on two wheels.
One from 2010 the Hilo side of the big Island…
Last December we spent 2 plus weeks on Maui. One day we drove to the IAO Needle but unfortunately the trail was close for maintenance so we did not get to see it. It’s just beyond the top of the draw you see here.
Saw something happening…
I got the answer to my Floatsam post. I was encourage to try and get some one in the know to ID what I had discovered on the beach the other morning. (Thanks Jan at http://www.ptsmarts.com/ )
I received a lot of feedback after my inquiry, this being one of them.
Don – as noted below, these are gooseneck barnacles – great photos!

Hi Don,
Those are gooseneck barnacles. Because they (unlike most barnacles) rely on the turbulence of the waves to feed, they don’t survive very far from the ocean and aren’t in Puget Sound. They are common all along the west coast, though, so you don’t have to worry about invasive sea life.
If you find something else in the future that does need to be reported, you can use the contacts listed at http://wsg.washington.edu/mas/ecohealth/invasive.html for aquatic invasive species or call 1-855-WACOAST for something related to Japan Tsunami Marine Debris.

Seabrook on the Washington Coast… We went for a walk to the beach this morning and one of these may be Floatsam from the Japan Tsunami, I don’t know.
I don’t know what these are, but they looked like mini Geoducks??? 
What, who could be here?
