| Meet the cast of characters for this trip.
From left to right: Julie, Ryan, and Anne. This was
taken at the foggy coast of Point Forchu near a lighthouse. |
|
| I thought this sign was pretty funny, warning
of rogue waves in this tiny pond. But, of course, it refers to the
dangerous waves from the shore not far below. |
|
| We saw fields and fields of lupines growing
wild. They were in just about every vacant lot. This is a
vacant lot right on the coast by the lighthouse. |
|
| Here Anne goes beachcombing. We came up
with some pretty good beach glass, but it was all green. No clear
or amber. |
