"More than 45% of southern California's coastline is groomed with machinery used to remove debris from sandy beaches, creating a flat topography ideal for recreational activities of the local population and tourists. However, vegetation is consequently actively discouraged from growing, reducing habitats for local wildlife and resulting in some native and threated species becoming locally extinct."

There were bluebottles and rips at #ManlyBeach today so they ended up closing it. I went here instead. Then we got ice cream and took the ferry home. #ThreeGoodThings
