Taking Cable Ferry To Denman
This cable thing is new to me - it has been running for a few years. By riding cables instead of propellor, the ferry uses 1/4 the amount of fuel. The center cable lasts for 8 months until it is replaced and it replaces a side cable - total cable life is about 2 years. I sure hope those old rusty cables are recycled.
Nara Digging Out Fossil
The beach is mostly flat shale. In some places you will see the shale bend into a mound over an encapsulated blob. That blob is your fossil.
Yellow Monkeyflowers
These flowers were only found here - where water slowly ran over the rocks to the ocean. Of course that is perfect Monkeyflower habitat.
Field Chickweed With Dead Wood
This is another one of those flowers that apparently grows everywhere that I have never seen before. It's quite nice how it mats. Again, I figured this was an escaped garden plant.
