Washouts

On Suday Dec,17th my wife and I walked about half way out to the lighthouse on the Dungeness Spit. We were shocked! It was hard to believe the extent of the damage to the Spit.In at least 12 places the action from last weeks storm allowed waves to wash thru the shingle and beach log barrier.Our walk was just at high tide and at a couple of locations water from the Strait flowed into the Bay.Even without a ""super storm"" like we just experienced I could see the Spit becoming a chain of islands..
