MYSTERIES; Seaview-WA

I've been laid low (pretty much since we arrived here, in WA) with an allergy-induced hibernation.

All I do is 🛌💤 most of the day away.

Holland was out and about Sunday … and shot me a text about a beached whale: 

My Sunday Post~RAINY MORNING & DIRTY RICE EVENING; Ocean Park-WA: https://roadgypsiesvalandholland.blogspot.com/2025/04/rainy-morning-dirty-rice-evening-ocean.html

Monday he cajoled me out of Independence - and we drove the same Seaview beach … and saw the same beached whale; this time with scientific scavengers on site. They had fenced the whale's immediate area off - but the putrid scent of decay permeated a wide area of the beachfront 🤮

The scientific scavengers have arrived …

The fishing net & buoy has been removed from the whale's mouth.

The Team has sectioned off their work area & is documenting everything; there's really no [mystery] as to how and why this whale died … but there is $$$$$ in {research}.

That did not help the situation with my queasy stomach 😟

I was glad when we left the beach for home.

But before we left, my eye caught sight of something in the rocks poking up out of the sand - a face etched in one of the large basalt protrusions. I said, "Holland! Stop - I want to get a picture of that face in the rock, there." He stopped - and at first couldn't see what I was seeing. But, after snapping the picture and defining the features as I pointed each portion out - he did see it, too; teeth on the lower end of the rock, a concave where a nose would normally be, and two little eye sockets at the upper end of the rock: I finished my description with, "Bigfoot's face."

Leaving the lower end of Seaview's beach, I saw 'a face' in the rocks … this really could be a 'mystery'; it seems strange to me that waves could carve a face out of solid rock.

Bigfoot's moniker; perhaps I do watch waaay too many sci-fi movies 😂🤣

Bigfoot (or Sasquatch) is a PNW myth, but we are both Sci-fi junkies that like to rib each other about this prehistoric ape that supposedly lives in WA State's rainforest regions 😉

Today, we are both feeling punk - with Holland's stomach as sour as mine is, as well as a runny nose 😔

Text to David.

It's no mystery.

This is typical WA State fallout.

We both just want this yucky funk over with; so we get back to enjoying life.

VIEWS FROM OUR WINDOW; Quartzsite-AZ

We like our space at The Pit Stop, in Quartzsite-AZ; for being an active place where RVr's come and go pretty much around the clock, it's relatively quiet.

Heading upstairs to bed, last night, Holland said, "If we could breathe easy, this is the place to be - at first, it didn't seem like much, but it grows on you, you know? We always find our way back here. I'm gonna miss it."

Today, though was not quiet.

Morning Coffee

There was a lot of activity going on today - pretty noisy activity.

And we watched it play out, from our livingroom window 😉

Morning humor ;-)

Road work starting here, at The Pit Stop … Quartzsite-AZ

This is very noisy - but, it is also very needed; the road has been trash for the past 2 years we've been coming here. We are glad to see the road being torn out and resurfaced 👏

Intermediately, I posted a pattern to some links … and saw that my slipper pattern that I had made for Holland, had been featured on one of my Bog Hop Links 😁

Knitted half-socks to keep the plastic thong straps off my skin - I'm dealing with the gritty desert sand inflammations, I really do not need the extra angry red rash from plastic allergic reactions.

And - Tulsi was confirmed:

The DC snakepit is going to hiss and attempt to strike Trump with a lethal bite … but, they'll lose, and they know it. They are miserable people, that can't stand to be miserable alone.

But, The people have spoken and they want change in DC.

Slowly, but surely, the changes will happen, and everything will be coming up roses 👊
