My good friend Ken pointed out the pizasters,
Purple Pizasters, they're the local fauna, also known as starfish.
Although I can't really
see how anyone
would call them a fish. They don't move very fast. I guess when
you're compared to a clam, or a mussel, they move faster than them.
So I suppose fast is relative.
We managed to go to the beach at low tide, so we could still see
all the critters. I was pretty impressed with the amount of wildlife
to be seen. This is LA remember, and Santa Monica bay is the poster
child for enviornmental clean up.
Anyhow I'm rather impressed with
Ken. Although probably the biggest computer
geek
of the bunch
of
us
in high school.
He's
now
a lifeguard
during the day, and teaches scuba diving during the evenings
and weekends. Not a bad life, I'd like to see him doing other things,
but I'm also jealous that he lives a life always in the water,
that I have not the courage to try live
