I walked to the end of Crescent Beach this morning and over the rocky outcroppings that mark its terminus. Beyond the beach, there is another beach. The rocky outcroppings are quite lovely, layered and full of color.











They're also chock full of shells that are already clean and dry, unlike those on the beach. Walking down the coast by way of beaches and scrambling over rocks is my idea of a good time, but I hadn't known that there was exploration to be had when I set out, so I'd only brought a bottle of water, and turning around when half of it was gone seemed the prudent course of action. By the time I was padding back up the beach, having been out only 45 minutes, the blasted sun was already giving me a headache. This is going to put a cramp in my wandering.
