Anchor Point continued
I got around to editing the other Anchor Point photos while in the lab today. In the second image you should be able to see three bald eagles. We think we saw at least seven there at once, all circling around. Of course the two guys that worked there thought nothing of it while we all freaked out. One eagle actually swooped right in front of our van while we were all eating lunch, and its wingspan was looked longer than the van was wide. It was incredible. The third image is a tractor backing into the ocean to pull out a boat, which is what the two guys that work there do. I guess there's no way for the little fishing boats to get out of the water without being pulled out by these tractors that wait by the ocean with a radio for calls from the boats. They have these hitches, two of which can be seen (sans tractor) in the last image, that the boats drive straight into once the tractors are in the water. It's really an amazing sight, the tractors just drive straight into the ocean until you'd swear the engine must be submerged and completely destroyed, but then they manage to come back out again, while towing a boat.
