We should have all exchanged phone numbers. I got there and waved a Brandy a few times. I don't think she recognized me. Jay, i called your cell but didn't leave a msg. I wasn't sure if it was south or north Fogarty. The "Who's yur Crawdaddy" wall distracted me from noticing the north Fogarty entrance (laugh)

 

We picked up a lot of styrofoam and found a HUGE rusty hinge. The beach was pretty clean, i think this section of beach gets hit by the waves pretty well and washes everything away.

 

The cliffs were incredible, very smooth rock that had a trickle of water flowing over it for who knows how many years made it very smooth. Some rocks seemed more resistant to the erosion and still jutted out. You could see fossilized shells being uncoverd by the erosion, it was really cool. We left around 12:30 since we had a cranky baby with us. It sure was stormy!! At some points there was enough hail to cover the whole ground white. My sister and her husband stayed thrusday night in Lincoln city and woke up to an inch of snow!!
