    Strange, weird or odd or whatever beach finds thread….

    NFR Good news!!!

    Given the boat reference, does that mean you hit Ollies and Witch's? We go to Playa Grande every February as a home base but it's small wave season then so we haven't made it up there yet. Plus, I suck on rights even more than usual.
