Lapush Area Beaches - April 14, 2026

 It was raining very hard and the wind was driving it sideways. We chose to go out in it briefly. Kay and I believe we hadn't been to Rialto beach since the mid 1970s. in spite of the weather it was good to get back.

 We wanted a flower fix before we headed off on some other adventures, so we headed up to Ollala knowing we were a couple of weeks early. we still saw some great flowers

These signs were posted at the trailhead and a couple of other places. Clearly the secrets out and the Forest Service is taking notice.
