Today was perfect beach weather. So many people were out enjoying what will be one of the last nice weekends before the rains start in. I did not notice a lot of changes in the area, except that the "D" river was very narrow (of course not a lot of snowmelt for water) and it had made a large pool at the end (instead of going straigh into the ocean.
