Kinetic Sculpture Race 2008

The 40th Annual Kinetic Sculpture Race. The original. A big turn out as usual. Lots of fun. Lots of creativity. The race starts every memorial day weekend on the noon siren at Arcata Plaza. Come early to see the sculptures parked and meet the racers.

First post

This is a new blog on an old site. Welcome! Trinidad related story of the day:

Yesterday at Seascape restaurant and the pier people were treated to a visit from a pod of orcas. A couple of the larger ones chased a seal for a 1/2 hour in the bay finally catching it and bringing it up on the beach rocks to finish it off. To ease the dismay of the onlookers the parent orcas fed the seal to their cute baby orcas over by the boat ramp. They took a good look at the many human spectators before heading back out to sea.
