Sorry for not getting this out sooner but with recovering from my hand surgery and other life challenges, could't get to it till now. 

Saturday, October 6th, a few local grillfellas are going to meet at Seacliff State Beach.  I will get there early to grab a covered picnic area.  This is what it will look like.



If you can make it, come early (recommend by 9 - 9:30 AM).   The parking area near the beach fills up quickly on weekends.  Once it is full you have to park in the lot on the bluffs and carry everything down a very long staircase to the lower area.



Dogs are allowed but have to be leashed at all times.  Unfortunately, alcoholic beverages are not allowed.  The State Park Rangers have a zero tolerance and will cite.  If you plan on fudging, I would recommend pouring your drinks into red cups in your coolers out of sight.  Entrance fee to the park is $10. I will have plates, cups and utensils.  Bring everything else you want to sit on, drink and cook (including a kettle). Sunscreen and beach towels recommended.  There are flush bathrooms available but I recommend bringing your own toilet paper.

Here is a link to the Seacliff State Beach Website:

The address is State Park Drive, Aptos.

Mrs. Cellar2ful and I drove to Seacliff today to see how busy it was.  Not to bad, but it was a Sunday, not a Saturday.  Don't want to promise anything but these are two photos I took this morning while we sat on the beach.  There were between 20-30 whales feeding all along the shore.  They put on an amazing show of lunge feeding, tail slapping and full body breaches for about 4 hours.





Let me know if you are planning on coming and what your grilling.  Just copy, paste and add you name with what your cooking and side dishes.

Would love too... but unfortunately in my industry getting weekend days off is like pulling teeth.
