The gloom has settled in for another June month on the shores of the South Bay with an unexpected tar-like substance casting an even longer shadow on theses anticipated grey days. Even so, summer in the South Bay is an especially grand time to be outside, on the strand, in and around the water and watch the public ages two to ninety-two journey to the sand form Docckweiler Beach to Torrance Beach for a little summer excursion.
