PATIENCE, DEAR RIPTIDE READERS

Occasionally, you may notice that our stories get jumbled with those of our sister blog sharing the same Typepad platform, MAYBURRITOVILLE, a Maybury family adventure in genealogy started by my "kid" brother Joel, a semi-retired foreign service officer in Washington, D.C., with some extra time on his hands. Anytime you like, hop on over to MAYBURRITOVILLE and see what Joel has dug up in European and Colonial American graveyards.

MAN'S BODY WASHES UP AT GRAY WHALE COVE

The body of a man was discovered at a beach north of Montara in San Mateo County on Sunday evening, March 24, according to authorities. The San Mateo County Sheriff's Office received a report at about 5:15 p.m. of an unresponsive man found in the water at Gray Whale Cove State Beach. Medical personnel arrived and pronounced the man dead at the scene, the Sheriff's Office said. The California Highway Patrol was alerted to do traffic control for the area of state Highway 1 near the beach as first responders addressed the scene. "The San Mateo County Coroner's Office will determine the cause and manner of death and is the entity responsible for identifying the man," said a spokesperson for the Sheriff's Office, which had no further comment.

RESTAURANT UPDATE: SUSHI, BARBECUE, OR WIENERSCHNITZEL?

SUSHI, BARBECUE, OR WIENERSCHNITZEL? Here at PacificaRiptide.com we hear about changes on the El Granada restaurant front re Monster Sushi, Breakwater Barbecue, and Your Mama's Haus. So our question is: Who's on first?

A NextDoor reader says Breakwater Barbecue moves into the old Monster Sushi in a couple of months, while the new Your Mama's Haus [German food] moves into Breakwater's old space. So now you will have to get your sushi fix at the new place down Highway 1 in the old Via Uno.
