Hi all,
Sorry for the short notice. There will be a clean-up of the Bolsa
Chica wetlands at Huntington Beach this coming Saturday, as part of
the California Coastal Clean-Up. I'll be leaving at 7am Saturday
morning and could take two other people. Just let me know if you're
interested. If I hear from more than two of you, we can try to
arrange car-pooling.
Ian
