Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for March 15, 2020

Wouldn’t it be easier to watch the whales from your dad’s boat?

I could understand Spud not wanting to use the “steps”, but Amelia?

Whales go pffft?

What a view! What a tree!

I’d gladly climb up that, but you’d need to call the fire department to get me back down. I have no sense of depth perception, and a 1" drop below my feet looks like a mile. But, humiliation is a small price to pay to watch “pffty whales.”

Wallace always knows how to have a whale of a good time.

This reminds me of the view of the Camden ME harbor from Mount Battie. Beautiful!

Wallace’s own personal crows nest. Literally.

I’d go first, Amelia, because you don’t want Spud to hit you on the way down if he misses a step..

The migration has started on the west coast for the Greys. First the males. They are hard to see if you don’t have a boat because the males stay out about five miles. The females with their calves come a little later because the calves are slower. They also stay far closer to shore. Mom keeps baby in (relatively) Shallow water. It’s easer to defend the calves that way.

Oh, it’s not THAT high…

Panel 1 could’ve stood on its own. Beautiful!

Beautiful landscape.

This cartoon alone is worthy of an Eisner.

May we never live in a world without whales. Amen.

Spud is probably getting a nosebleed just thinking about climbing the tree.

I totally LOVE the artwork on this strip

Oh my. What a wonderful experience.

The closest I can come is sitting on a B&B on a hill overlooking Kachemak Bay. Huge picture window, Enya playing softly in the background. It was so beautiful it made my chest ache. Our breakfast got cold all 3 mornings we stayed there. The hosts said they had lived there 20 years and it never got old.

I just get lost in that fantasy

Apparently Snug Harbor boasts a Redwood.

That is really cool, but there is a sure sign that maybe this is a bad idea: even Amelia’s afraid
