Two of my favorite things to discover in the early morning landscape – I love it when the sun crests over the eastern hills, shining on the white crests of the waves, while the rest of the beach is blanketed in the dark of twilight. AND I love when the cover of sand has been pulled back from marvelous agate beds.  Reds, Greens, Clear, White, Yellow, Black, Banded, Petrified, Fossils. I was walking this morning, picked up 5-6 in one direction and 3 headed back to the car.  Found a carnelian about the size of an egg. Its my favorite.

Went back to the beach with the boys and made it to Mystery Cove,  scooping up 3 mayo jars full of agates in about 20 minutes. 🙂
