I learned a new word, pinnipeds, the group of marine mammals including seals, sea lions, and walruses, all enemies of the marinas where they loll on the docks pooping everywhere, and where they colonize the swimming platforms and back decks of the boats at anchor.
Alex and Carol are heading out from Long Beach to spend a few weeks in the Channel Islands. They stopped in Marina del Rey on the way and we had a most pleasant afternoon on Red Sky and Happy Hour at Tony P’s.
