Around the island this weekend…

It was cool to see that folks have left their holiday lights up this weekend…it’s kind of a island tradition to leave ’em up till March or they burn out, so take your time, since they cheer up the grey months ahead… More around the island:
• Just because it was a little chilly, that didn’t keep people inside….it was cool to see so many folks out in the sun in town on Saturday & Sunday. Meanwhile, you know it’s blue moon this week, right? (Here’s more, because I know you’re gonna ask – why is it called “blue”?)
• Someone was checking out the kaleidoscopes at Island Studios yesterday…swing in & look into the light with ’em & you’ll get the idea (these are done by Luc & Sallie, and they’re awesome!)
• On the ferry scene, the Elwha is back, which is cool, because it holds more people than the Sealth.
• A quote from Monika Weiland – “Man has always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much…the wheel, New York, wars and so on…while all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man…for precisely the same reason.” Douglas Adams
