Nice day in Half Moon Bay

Jon and I drove out to the Ritz-Carlton in Half Moon Bay, which occupies an exquisite piece of ocean cliff just south of Highway 92. I didn't want to take off my shoes and deal with sandy feet, so we just walked down to the ocean as far as we could on the paved walkway. It was high tide, so that ended up being pretty close to water's edge.

Cool thing--we say 2 seals, or sea lions--we couldn't be sure--swimming fairly close to shore. In fact, they were in front of the waves most of the time. It was really cool to see them, since that's proof that there's still time to reverse the damage we're doing to the environment. If those animals are still swimming around, all healthy and seemingly happy, there's still something we can do to preserve their ecosystem. So shall we?
