Ocean City, WA is home to some spectacular wood carvings at
Ocean City Market Place. Can’t miss it, right at the jog in hwy 109. (47.071379, -124.165992)
Work in progress |
Joe is
holding one of his elegant creations. He comes from a family of wood carvers. His
father, aunts, and uncles are all artists and display their creations here.
South Beach
No, I have not been magically transported back to Florida, but South Beach Campground, OR. (47.568103, -124.361592)
Following
my 2 by 2 axiom, less than 200 miles and off the road by 2, paid off big today.
I arrived at South Beach C.G. by 12:30 and scored one of the coveted sites on
the low bluff over looking the Pacific. By 3 all the ocean side sites were snapped
up. Great view for only $5 night with my old fart pass.
Hundreds
of mostly 3 to 4 inch crabs litterer the beach. Was this the result of
predators, or something else? An even more interesting question is why are they
all males?
Catching Surf Perch, yummy |
Great walking beach. My new pedometer app totaled 14,578 steps. |
Three
gastropods hunker down, their operculums sucked in tight, waiting for high tide
and salvation. Only 7.5 hours to go.
Spectacular end to another great day on the road. |
