More MV shoreline changes...

Went out to chappy yesterday to have a look-see and take the dog for a run. There is another small "breach" along Norton beach. This one is small and is a few hundred yards to the east of the one created last year creating a small island between the two. The 5'-10' bluff that was there last year on the chappy side has been flattened out and the entire chappy side of the beach is pretty flat and low now. You can see that the ocean has washed over much of it at times during the winter. There are a few wet-soft areas near the new breach on the Katama side that are like "quick sand" too. My son was with me and quickly sunk to just over his knees instantly and had a struggle getting out while I was trying not to laugh to hard.

Also the island off of wasque (on the way out to the hooter) that has been barely awash for the past several years appears to be more developed.
