TSO - G - Day 4 - A Well Deserved Break

Today we went down the coast a ways to Pescadero State Beach for a few hours to get away from our projects and hang out together. Some of us spent the day reading and napping at base camp, and others went on a grand adventure down the beach. 

An interesting rock formation protected base camp for this week's beach excursion from the wind.

Pescadero is one of the longer beaches on our section of the California coastline, so a group hiked down the beach until they came across a sweet cave in the cliffside. 

Kavin climbs up the side of the cave. 

Evan inspects the cave wall. 

In keeping with our wildlife-filled week, the group spots a pod of dolphins just off the coast.

Yoel, Carles, and Zach point out a dolphin in the surf. 

They also find a seal!

Our fearless explorers continue down the beach, finding a drainage pipe larger than any of them.

A Daniel for scale.

Having decided that they've gone far enough, the group heads back to base camp, and we all head back to camp.

Their David Hasselhoff impression is coming along well. 

We return from the beach, and everyone takes a quick shower. Before dinner some of us go down to the creek to fish for crawdads.

Ben uses his improvised line to bait crawdads.

Tomorrow we're back to work, and in the afternoon we'll test out our carts!
