What an experience it would have been to stroll around with Paul, photographing the people as he did.
Your delicate stars are wonderful, Jane, and I sure like the Cliff Rocks. I don’t understand Crab’s Work – how did they do that?

Dave, I meant to answer about the crabs. I saw this on a beach in Australia. The small crabs create these little sand balls as they are digging their holes or tunnels, maybe. Some are in intricate splayed patterns in perfect little round balls–zillions of them. I was captivated! Talk about a lot of work…
