dido here. i was going to try to get out to LJ within the next week or so.

HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN GOING ON SO FAR ?

CAN THE LAUNCH EVEN BE ACCESSED AT ALL RIGHT NOW ?

IS ANYONE EVEN ABLE TO GET A KAYAK ONTO THE LJ SHORES BEACH, TO THEN LAUNCH INTO THE WATER ?

perhaps coming onto the boardwalk/sidewalk around the public showers & restrooms area, and then rolling the yak in down the boardwalk, on kayak dolly wheels ?

is THIS how people are getting their yak onto the beach, during this construction ?

Yes, basically depending on when you arrive and where you can park, etc. people are rolling on Vallecitos where the bathrooms are, down a few steps onto the sand and then rolling down the beach.

The box has been completed and the drain pipes have been laid. Next comes the paving of the first block which will be made out of concrete.

Remember, it takes 28 days for the concrete to dry. So, at this point we are looking a little pass May before the launch reopens. Also, the city has a legal moratorium to finish before the end of June.

My guess, I say the launch will open by mid June.

we need to get some teenagers down there for some sort of valet service, I'd pay like $20 a trip!
