Just as an addendum, I also think it's important to for me to note that I know the President of the town council personally and have for most of my life. He's a helluva nice guy but then, his whole family is, too - brothers and sisters who were - and are - surfers, great parents - but maybe that's where everything begins and ends.

Tell ya the truth, I had the feeling after thinking about it a while today that he may have shooed it through pretty quickly so it wouldn't get even worse in terms of restrictions on parking and a de facto closure.

Although it's cold comfort at this point, I think we may be lucky that there's any parking at all at that spot. It could have been much worse still.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
