California Sand

One of my daughter's friends sent me pictures, but no sand, from a great site north of San Francisco, so I cheated and used that as my gateway to enter California Sand images. There are a ton! The California coast is so different from the east coast. My daughter lives in Los Angeles now, so we get a chance to visit a couple of times a year. We have only felt safe going into the water in one location there - Paradise Cove in Malibu. Paridise Cove is like going back in time. The restaurant located right on the beach is something right out of the 1950's! There are pictures on the wall of all the famous folks who have eaten there. Classic pictures of classic cars that weren't classic when they were taken, are joined by images of people smiling with huge fish! The rocks that make up the cliff backing the beach are spectacular! They are sedimentary layers, but the layers are vertical. As you walk along the beach, the layers begin to flatten to the horizontal again. It is truly anamazing spot. Thank you Christa, I wanted to photograph my California sand.
