Currently, it costs $8.00 (yeah, eight bucks) per day just to _park_ in the lot adjacent to a popular surfing/swimming/paddling spot at one of the CA State parks down where I have been staying this summer (Cardiff by the Sea). Yet, it is regularly full and has no room, from about 10 am onward. The response by many is to park adjacent to heavily traveled Hwy 101 about 300-400 yards away and carry/roll boards, yaks, etc., along the roadside in the bike lane ... to the beach. The real problem is that there are just to freaking MANY of us! -- Dave Kruger Astoria, OR *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
