Thursday, July 2, 1992 - Bodega Bay, CA

Somewhat foggy this morning. Calm in the bay, but still small-
craft advisories outside, so we're staying another day.
Roy sealed the fo'c'sle portholes, and I went Royaking. Paddled around the entire bay. Stopped at a grocery store, but they didn't have anything I wanted. I can't understand how a town of this size, with hundreds of houses and a great many RVers and campers can not have a single supermarket or even a decent grocery store. Where do these people buy their food?
The sun came out in the afternoon. Rode our bikes through the campground and down to the beach. Walked up and down the beach, enjoying the salt air and the surf. Then we rode down to Campbell Cove. I showed Roy the cave I'd discovered that morning. I was able to paddle about 2/3 of the way into it in the morning, but now the tide was out and we could walk into the cave. It went in about 50 feet.
Watched a man pulling shrimp out of the wet sand with a pump-like gadget. He said he always got his quota of 50 shrimp. Used them for bait, and he always caught fish.
