When we step outside the parameters of our One Plastic Beach (1,000 yards of Kehoe Beach) we feel transgressive…beyond the pale. We report about one such offense — a New Year's Eve affair.
But the story in the Point Reyes Light about the rebuild of the parking lot at Drakes Beach and the expansion of the tidal wetlands to make the area more accessible to the elephant seals that come to breed, plus, a visit with Amelia had us bounding to Drakes Beach for an outing.
This last year and a half we haven’t got out much — we’ve been at home watching our hair grow. The refreshing ocean breeze was perfect for letting Richard’s freak flag fly.
Oddly reassuring — even though we've been on a beach break, the plastic has not.
Felt like O&H&W to find our tried and true stand-bys from our “hit list” in just a half-hour.
12 shotgun wads
1 tampon applicator
2 disposable lighters
1 milk pull tab
1 Kraft cheese spreader
2 Starbucks swizzle sticks
Handful of assorted lids
Chunks and pieces of foam
2 water bottles
Etc.
Etc.
Old Home Week often capitalized O&H&W : a week of special festivities during which a community invites former residents to return for a reunion.
O&H&W - hey, we're back, baby.
