I have never been to the launch when its raining. Never knew this is what it turned into!

By the way, the barrier fell thrity seconds before I snapped this! Anyone else catch that?

Here's what I saw when I landed:

The launch is taking a heavy hit. I paddled out this morning and this is what I found when I
landed...

The Launch around 10am Nov. 30, 2007

A Closer look at the launch

The Street by the Launch -
the Storm drain lid had been pushed off by the pressure

I watched you haul your kayak out wavster. I can't go out in the rain because I'll melt so I set here and hit the refresh button and watch the launch area wash away. Thanks for the pictures. The news is getting all scary about the hills of La Jolla washing away. Hope that doesn't happen.

I'm more worried about the hills along the Del Dios. All the vegetation is gone,
now the land is exposed. At least in LJ, there's vegetation on the hillside.
