I got this and a shirt for doing the 5K run and walk in West Seattle.

My first time seeing @buchananbull.bsky.social was during Midwest FurFest 2023 and he is a friendly nice bull. 😊 Picture taken by me. 😊

Other than the negative stuff I still had fun during the visit to my Native home state. And I will continue to visit every chance I get. 😊

I’m not saying they were ignoring me or didn’t want to see me. But I didn’t let that ruin my visit. 😊 My next visit as long as the snow and ice doesn’t f*** it up my next visit will happen one or two days before Anthro Northwest and then I leave one day later.

The two things that were a disappoint during the visit my native homeland of Western Washington state is on the first full day it was grey cloudy and a bit of rain. The second is no orca sightings even though they knew where I was the entire time.

These are four of the best Sea Lion pictures taken by me during the visit to my Native home state. 😊

I fly back to the Midwest today. But I will be flying back to my Native home state more than likely for Anthro Northwest in seven months. 😊

I found out three hours ago that one of my best friends from Junior High and High School died. 😢 *sad orca*

I am a bit disappointed that no orcas have not been seen yet. I hope they are not upset with me. But I can’t tell them when to show up.

No orcas yet, but I haven't given up any hope on seeing them. ^_^

Does this give anyone ideas of how to catch me?

Going to the beach now for whale spotting. 😊

Hear is the picture of my 40 inch orca and the two medium ones the one on the left I got during Midwest FurFest from @artseaanimal.bsky.social and the one on the right is Totem from @malytwotails.com 😊

I’m now in my Native home state again. 😊

If that’s the case I won’t be able to surprise the Orcas. Even if I can that would definitely be a first. Because I have never been able to surprise them. They always know how to find me. I swear they put some sort of tracking device on me when I was given the Orca connection at two years old.

I doubt the orcas have any idea that I’m coming for a visit. And yet I have a feeling the spirit of Granny also known as J2 and Ruffles known as J1 have told the Southern Residents and the Transient orcas that I’m on my way.

The orca fluke won’t transform me into an Anthro Orca. Besides the orca who gave me the connection when I was two years old would never allow that to happen.

I’m not using Orca plushies as any form of good luck. I did also bring my 40 inch Orca plushie with me that I use as a pillow. 😊 I even brought my Orca tail with me for the first time. 😊

Before I go to sleep I’ll take a picture of my 3 orca plushies on the bed I’m sleeping on. The tiny and small Orcas I did bring the small and tiny orca I brought from @artseaanimal.bsky.social during MFF 23 I have with me. I also brought the Orca given to me named Totem from @malytwotails.com 😊

But the only problem is I really don’t think TSA would let that happen. But definitely it would really surprise me.

If only I could sit in the middle of fursuiters on the plane. If I was I wouldn’t definitely fall asleep. lol

When I arrive at my non furry friend mom’s house in Alki I might spend some time on the front deck and possibly hear the blow hole of any Orcas or whales that might be in the area. 😊 To bad my camera doesn’t have any night vision capabilities on it. lol

I’m on the plane heading to Seattle from Indianapolis. 😊 I’m definitely a happy orca right now. 😊

My body is visibly shaking because of the excitement. 😊

The mini and small version of this is coming with me when I leave for the visit to my Native home state tomorrow. 😊

My first time seeing @fireflywolfy.bsky.social was during Midwest FurFest 2018 Picture taken by me. 😊

@hornet.bsky.social I hope you are having a very good birthday. ^_^

BlueSky should definitely look into an edit button. That way posts won’t need to be removed just because a mistake was made. Twitter never had an edit option as far as I know.
