The final act

After our break at Jack-In-the-Box, I decided to go back for one last look. Kellyanne said it stunk too bad and was "boring" (that word again), so she asked if she could wait in the car. As I got close, I could hear that the equipment was quiet. I was afraid I had missed it, but I could then see that I was just in time. Unfortunately I had to stay downwind. They looked ready to go and I was afraid if I tried to move over to the other side I would miss it. Besides, the crowd was much thinner on this side (imagine that!) and I had a better view than I probably could have gotten upwind. While we were gone they had finished the hole and stretched the body out to its full length along the edge of the hole. It really did look bigger when it wasn't curled up like it had been. If you would like to see the movie of them pushing it over the edge, click on "view movie" and use your back button to get back to this spot to rejoin the commentary. There is one more graphic picture next, of the whale down in the hole. If you would like to skip that, press "skip next picture."
