Whale Season is Upon Us!

February is the time of year that Hualalai settles into itself with the feeling of calm after the storm of Festive, the Mitsubishi, and the Invitational. Whales, sensing the peaceful atmosphere, get into their yearly trek with gusto! Bill McDowell captured some of their cavortings.
