Rock beds are the main attraction here, as 4 seekers with a dog at 6:30 a.m. could attest. But the beds were not as thick as in years past. It was a calm low-tide morning. Gulls were the only other life forms.Stones, of course; crab molts; shell fragments; and horse puckies marked the drift line. No litter, probably blown who knows where by our winds. Tire treads from the north were visible.

Rock hunters delight in this otherwise boring stretch of beach; 3 were mining away in a big bed of small stones despite heavy fog and their 4 at-large dogs.
