One of those surprises is about the mission site of the Native American village called Palica.
"It was only mapped once," Sims said.
That was in the 1700s.

That is a pretty good surf predicted for Tuesday, especially considering that the tides lately have been big.
Yesterday I showed the current condition of a couple of the beaches.
Keep watching to see how the surf predictions develop.
Good hunting,
