ITs SPRING BREAK...So the beaches will be nuts again, with lots of people.<br /><br />Brandi, thanks for finding Ewa Girl at WINDSOCK late afternoon. It was nice that she had a good rest, we stayed till 5:40pm. The winds were wild, chilly, we were frozen out there.<br /><br />I dont know why, but Buster Boy was very alert yesterday. He kept looking west, like he was afraid of someone. He would keep jumping up, tossed his tail, I wonder, if , someone did something to him. Poor kid. He departed 2:45pm per Brandi.<br /><br />Sometimes on the beach, you meet total strangers from the mainland. WEll I met TERRA..who loved Pohaku, and saw her last year when she was Pregnant. We had to leave, Terra was willing to tell folks what she learned about Pohaku, to keep folks away from her. I gave her a hug...I love it when folks take a watch for the sake of the critters stay...so they can get the rest needed.<br /><br />Miss Pohaku, she just loves KoOlina..secrets, especially. It actually is a great spot for a seal, and NOT. Because of the volume of different people out there, coming all the time, a seal needs to be monitored. Ropes have to be far enough for the seals peace and quiet, volunteers needed to EDUCATE.<br /><br />I wish the hotel industry would make a footpath, that is paved, so when a seal comes a shore, folks can get to THE OTHER SIDE OF BEACH...SAFELY. We watch folks slipping on rocks, falling, we watch the seal looking at folks that talk to them. There is a tree from LAST YEAR, that fell and is dangling on shore. The branches stick out, with thorns..someone not paying attention could poke their eyes. How come we can see the dangers for humans and not the industry. I feel, a visitor should be given a safe free pathway..dont you???<br /><br />If they should ever make a footpath for the visitors, all could enjoy a nice walk, wheel chairs could make the trek out there. I feel bad when families cant take a relative to the area.<br /><br />They could call the footpath..Discovery Walk. A seal can get it's rest, if high tide, no need to let folks risk going in between waves to the OTHER SIDE, IN FRONT OF A sleeping seal. And Folks can walk on a stable ground rather than the huge boulders that sometimes...move. EVERYONE LOVES WALKING passed the seal...there are safety issues here.<br /><br />We see the issues..we think someone should do something about the area. Dont you????<br /><br />I think, SAFETY and Relaxing out at KoOlina, giving a seal a small space are things to THINK ABOUT.barbaranoreply@blogger.com
