Ocean Beach Fishing Pier

	I spent the day with Judy (known as "Library Gal" on the forums) in San Diego and we wound up at Ocean Beach. We thought walking along the Ocean Beach Fishing Pier might be an interesting thing to do. :)
	I don't know why I did this, but I snapped photos of each side of the gate and put them together.
	Special thanks, by the way, to Judy for driving down to San Diego for the day. The poor girl lives north of Los Angeles and really longs to get out and live somewhere nice like Colorado.
	Here are some shots of the beach, the ocean waves coming in and a surfer who put on quite a show for us on the pier!
	And yes, people really do fish on the pier. The dude on the left proudly showed off the fish he was catching and occasionally fed the large brown pelican (photos below). I also took a picture of the two icky, slimy fish to the right. :p)
	Near the small cafe on the pier, I got a nice shot of Judy. :)
	Oooooooh! This bird is simply known as a brown pelican. There were hundreds of these birds happily flying away at La Jolla Cove a few days ago!
	I like the composition of this shot. :)
	Myself and Judy. We realized we didn't need to squat down for the camera, but among the many portraits taken at this spot, this seemed to be the best! :) Here is my other California page so far: Cowles Mountain in San Diego (alt. 1,592 feet)

	Ewwwwwwwww! Look at these slimy seashells! :(
	Look at all this disgusting seaweed! :-(
	Bird droppings on the railing of the pier.
	Whenever you're at the beach, always beware of birds flying over! Here's an icky dropping that felt not far from us while on the pier.
	Oh my goodness, what that is, it is just freaky-looking!
	My feet, um, with all the wet sand made it for this section. :(
