GOOD LORD THAT'S GETTING UP THERE!
Inspiration flowed through me when I stepped up onto the sea wall to take this shot. I was pumped for the night after coming home from Monterey, AND my friend Kitt was there to meet me. Kitt and I were on the same crew from Easter Island to Tahiti. Not only that but Kitt, Garen and our friend Jess, who is now taking Cook Island by storm, were on the same crew for most of it.
The process of sailing across much of the Pacific Ocean makes you fast friends.
I am lucky to count Jess and Kitt as great friends from here on out!

The first item of trash we saw.
But the night turned up more condoms than any other beach collection thus far. 3 - THREE! - in the first ten minutes. Oh man, will Kitt ever come out with me again? He lucked out by finding all three. Jeez.
The other heavy hitting item we found? Plastic bags, LOTS of plastic bags, I'm talking 10 or more plastic bags in 20 minutes. It had been awhile since I'd seen so many all at once.
And one shoe!
A good friend, a beautiful sunset, and lots of trash, a fun combo!
