It has been a very hard year for Lion's Mane jellies with large numbers of whole or almost whole jellies and pieces, large and small at the tide line. Enjoyed meeting a praying mantis and, hopefully assisting in its recovery from the tide.

Significant changes specifically at NW 30th Street in front of Surftides Motel with exposed slabs, large rocks, gravel fields and huge boulders where only flat sand was before.
