[Leica] Creeping Beaches

[len-1 at comcast.net (Leonard Taupier)]

Walt,

This is a very nice photo of a sad story. It's happening all the way  
up and down the coast.  Pretty soon that condo, or hotel, won't be  
there unless they put in some serious cement sea walls. Every year  
the communities on the Jersey shore reclaim the sand from the ocean  
with huge vacuum cleaners. Costs a bundle. So do the houses.
