http://orvalguita.blogspot.com/2009/10/warm-welcome-home.html
Oceanographic Research Vessel Alguita. Wednesday, October 7, 2009. The Warm Welcome Home. And friends for the warm welcome home. Marieta. Francis and Jeanne Gallagher.

Bay was plastic trash making its way out to sea as we headed in. Things like Styrofoam.
