A day at the beach (literally)

On Friday, we took a short drive over to Pismo Beach.

Jen found what we later learned was a live sand dollar. It’s unusual to find them still living. (She put it back into the water in an attempt to save it. It was probably eaten by a bird right after we walked away.)

This guy got to try out a Segway. There’s a new company in town that’s renting them out.

We finished off the afternoon with lunch at Mo’s Barbecue, where you see things like this:
