You see people on TV and in movies exploring these beautiful rocks crusted with sea life. I am absolutely fascinated by sea life. I have a very strong fear of it too, but, I’m in awe none-the-less. I remember falling in love with the idea of mermaids after seeing Splash! with Darryl Hannah. I wanted […]
The Puget Sound Estuarium was hosting a Pier Peer. This would be a great way to see more sea life and get a close look at things. Probably not a smart thing when I already fear everything that is in the water. (Thalassophobia is a b!tch!) This was absolutely neat and weird at the same […]
I can’t say I expected this to end up on here. I knew what dragon boats were. But, with my accepting my fear of the things in the water, this really wasn’t even a thought. The opportunity came up! I kept going back and forth – “It’s a new experience” , “It’s in the ocean”, […]
