newbie question about interacting with hadoop sequence files, in particular sequence files with POJO's serialized in them

We have just started looking at Pig, and at a first search don't see how to handle loading/storing data to hadoop sequence files.
In addition many of our datasets have a local object as the value.

I will make the assumption that we have to write a custom function if we want to reach into our objects, but if I just want to pass them forward as a blob, through the join, is that possible?
