Pathway along Hawk Creek was exposed for about 100 yards from the bridge to the 1st sandy area on the right. Two children and a mom were having fun building a sand castle. Several folks were walking the quiet streets. There was minimal construction and/or maintenance activities observed.

Nothing notable

Seaweeds and seagrass, Wood pieces, Marine debris (plastic, styrofoam, etc. washing in from the sea). Only Rack line observed was the sandy area 100yds from the bridge. Other observations were from the tops of the riprap and there did not seem to be much drift line content being washed around.

Frame house observed in Dec 2018 has progressed to be close to 90% complete on the outside. There was no construction activity observed either inside or out.

Evidence of wave overtopping. nothing notable

Nature cooperated with a very nice day to observe the King Tide.  41 deg, light to no wind, some surf but nothing major.  The tide was in and waves were breaking on the rip rap. Wayside parking lot was in great shape, no litter, no overflowing trash containers and rest rooms were clean and operational.Hawk Creek Cafe was doing a nice business. Gotta love their pizza selections!We observed additional reasons ( up from 10 to 17) to slow down as we were driving along Hawk Drive.
