My conclusion was that this is a Herring Gull because of the coloring. It appears that this is the coloration of these gulls during their second winter.
Here is some things I learned about the Herring Gull online: Second winter - "Large, long-billed gull, Mostly white head with faint streaks and yellow eye, Pinkish legs, Mottled brown body with patches of pale gray on back" https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Herring_Gull/id)
A friend, who I consider an expert on bird ID, contacted me with the suggestion that the gull is an adult Glaucous Gull. He sent this link for reference - http://www.birdspix.com/north-america/gulls-terns-and-skimmers-laridae/gulls-gulls-terns-and-skimmers-laridae/glaucous-gull I see similarities to the juvenile Glaucous Gull.
