Amidst the hustle bustle of everyday, there are fun moments so I’m sharing this one.
I received a lovely email from a lady who is currently hosting some of my fish art in a cute little SLO shop. As an ocean enthusiast, it warmed my heart and gave me a big silly grin. It is probable that most followers of this little blog share this enthusiasm and would also appreciate getting this little message, so here it is. I just love it!
Hi Claudia
I hope all is well for you!
Here’s a story I think you’ll enjoy: Earlier today, my son and I were walking at Cayucos beach, and we saw a sea lion at the the water’s edge. It seemed like something was awry with this poor little soul, and so I called the Morro Bay Marine Mammal Center to ask for help. Several rescuers arrived shortly thereafter…They put a towel over her head, scooped her into a crate..and then whisked her off to be tested for what they said was possibly cumulative toxicity from the fish and sundry ocean critters that she eats:(
Before they took off with her, they asked me if I’d like to give her a name — Awwww..How sweet is that…. Yes indeed I’d be delighted to give her a name..was my answer..
I told them I’d like to name her CLAUDIA — in honor of a wonderful artist/marine biologist named Claudia Makeyev:):)
So, that’s the story:-)
A bientot,
