Coastal Cleanup (and sculpture making)

The annual national Coastal Cleanup event has become a September fixture on our household calendar.   This year we went again to San Gregorio State Beach.  The weather was perfect, with fog to start but with the sun soon breaking spectacularly through.  

The folks from the San Gregorio Environmental Resource Center were great hosts.  They laid on particularly good coffee!

After we'd picked our bit of the beach clean,our group got artistic with the remaining (organic) beach flotsam, in the vein of Ada and Michael's Windy Channel sculptures.

And after that, the girls just wanted to dig by the waves.

A perfect morning.
