The kids and I participated in the
International Coastal Clean-up day.
Every year on September 20th groups gather to clean up
ocean, river and lake coasts.
This year was the first time Sitka participated.
We and 19 other people spent time on Razor Clam beach on Kruzof.
(For you locals, around the corner from Brent's Beach.)
Kobi is standing on about 1/3 of the pile collected.
Among the debris was two mini refrigerators,
buoys, tons of Styrofoam, a bazillion plastic bottles, tarps, and carpet.
Nasty.




Kobi picked up a lot of garbage. Anan picked up some, but he spent a lot
of time laying on his belly in the black sand. The sun came out off and on,
and not a drop of rain fell from the sky. It was great.
