My roommate Mollie and friend Jamie came to visit for a week and I took them and my four younger siblings down to Salt Creek. We explored the tide pools, oohing over the little fish and hermit crabs, and aahing over the anemones, chitons, urchins (dead and alive), starfish, sea weed, and other strange tide pool creatures, and scampered over carpets of muscles and barnacles draped with slippery, shiny sea weed. Of the numerous times I've been there, this is the first time I've taken any worthwhile pictures. :)
