Dawn Patrol with Seal Pups

Earlier this morning, I did an early morning workout. The Juniors were already at the Rowing Boathouse. Poor kids. A great workout; some power, some sprint starts. I was surrounded by seals and their pups at the West Oly log boom. Pretty camera shy though. I tried to give them a wide berth so as to not upset them and I definitely felt like I was being escorted away from the boom. 
To the south, I could see Olympia's Lakefair set up below the Capitol campus. The Ferris wheel was standing quiet, tall and proud. I thought about the swarm of attendees that will converge on Lakefair later this week and wondered, how can I get all of them to care about and invest in the beautiful saltwater world that lies just to the north of them? I guess that's where the seal pups come in...
