LSP "Office"
Big changes at LSP. The old office at the entrance has finally been replaced.
Much of the work on the new building was done by members.. and the "new" office came in under budget!

I've not seen the short beach card before. It looks like at one time there was a "covered bench" on the front right corner of Big Pier..
