Long Beach, Cali. Long Beach, California, June 22/09 June 22, 1909

Cloudy forenoon and moist. Saw several large slugs Gastropoda on sidewalk. Walked beyond Seaside Seaside, California and collected a lot of shells etc., 67 specimens. In afternoon Nellie and I went to east San Pedro San Pedro, California and collected 869 shells on the SW end of Terminal Island Terminal Island, possibly the residuum of erosion of Pleistocene beds, though the perfect condition of the most fragile Pectens Pecten and Crucibulum Crucibulum are against that idea. Clear afternoon.
