Santa Cruz Beach

Posted By John Chabalko on May 8th, 2005

It’s unclear why they have these little life-guard huts out there as there wasn’t a life-guard in sight, and it was a sunny Saturday.
The Santa Cruz Boardwalk is a strange place. It’s like a little bit of New Jersey, but on the California coast. And I’m not talking about the funnel-cake. It must be the prospect of board-walk amusements, rides and deep-fried whatever-you-want that brings the people. As you may or may not know – The Lost Boys was filmed in Santa Cruz. As you also may not know Joel Schumacher directed this movie. I walked across the rail-road bridge used in the movie (sorry no pictures). Usually Joel Schumacher movies make me think of poodles. Wait, sorry, not poodles but Poop! that’s all i have to say on that matter. This weekend we’re heading to Bodega Bay to go camping for a bit.. if i can convince the work people to allow me to leave the area anyway – we’ll have to see how that unfolds.
