Exercise and what happened to our beaches

As the principal of the Gelker and Rohrer Insurance Agency my job can get a little stressful and hectic. One of the tried and true recipes for stress relief is regular exercise. A little running, some light weight lifting and core strengthening has helped keep stress at a manageable level for three decades. One of the most enjoyable modes of exercising is a walk at one of my spouse and I's favorite beach, Crystal Cove State Beach. Located in the southern most part of Newport beach, CA it is an unspoiled treasure of the California coast.
Last Sunday we arrived to find the last storm that nearly drown Costa Mesa, California had move most of the sand at Crystal Cove off the beach. Where we walked briskly on packed sand bear the shore break was covered with large rocks or exposed slabs of ancient stone. What happened to the beach?
