These seals are part of the famous Pier 39 seals in San Francisco that just recently decided to leave with no explanation. They have occupied the piers since 1990. In this image, the seals are doing what they do best...sleep. Taken with BP friends Renee, Linda and Courtenay in SF this last November. UPDATE: The seals have been found...on the Oregon Coast!!!
