Eight hopeful passengers joined Capt. Rich, Mario and this writer on the  
1130  outing. A small group of commons, perhaps 6, escorted the DD around  
Stearns Wharf and along the coast. Then, upon word that grays had been spotted  in 
the opposite direction, the DD turned about and headed west. A lone otter was  
spotted on the way, opposite the wharf. Perhaps this momentary diversion gave  
the gray whales an opportunity to give us the slip, which they did without so 
 much as a visible blow. So, the leisurely and pleasant voyage up the coast 
and  back was spent scanning the waters and describing landmarks to the guests, 
all  of whom received "whale checks"
