Lots of pools, some with more water than others, and some surging with the tidal wash. As I looked more closely I noticed the inhabitants - a purple anemone or two on the sidewall, sea snails moving slowly along the crevices, and other small creatures swimming around.

Fishing Lessons
Recently, I had the opportunity to spend an afternoon fishing with my father. This is something I highly recommend.
