That’s the view southwest to Vashon Island, from Lowman Beach about an hour ago, during the last -3 tide of the year – not quite as low as yesterday, but low enough to expose a wide stretch of this rocky beach just north of Lincoln Park. As this cool state infopage reminds us, please take care while you’re out at low tide – leave the beach the way you found it. (Maybe even bring a small bag for trash; we encountered a plastic bottle and tennis ball that are now both in the shoreside trash container, rather than awaiting high tide to carry them to the mid-Pacific garbage patch.)
