This guy was no ordinary schmuck. After 20 years of working at a zoo and aquarium, he should know what he saw. I would believe him. We didn't used to have sea lions here either, but now the place is crawling with them. Watch for more sightings, Doggie Hair.
I will keep an eye out for sure!
Scott and I were just talking about it on another thread, Point Defiance is a popular scuba area.... The Narrows is just around the corner, where the octopus watchers come from around the world to dive. And our beach house is just around the corner again, 5-6 miles away on Hale's Pass, on the mainland facing Fox Island. If I see one, I will let you know!
