Hey, here we are.

We are here.

Do you want me to just start reading or do you want, is there any other way that one would

approach this other than?

I don't think so.

All the cute closet opens have been done.

This is Outside In, the show about the natural world and how we use it.

I'm Sam Evans-Brown, and today I'm here with producer, Justine Paradise.

Hello.

So, about a month ago, we released an episode as part of our 10-by-10 series.

Indeed, yes, the series where we explore special ecosystems, and in this case, it was the

sand beach.

We had piles and piles of sand, it was almost like hills and valleys and rivulets.

I think it's fair to say that the beach is one of the most flexible or dynamic, if you

will have a tats in the world, it's super geologically unstable.

Yeah, and I won't rehash the whole episode, but essentially the TLDR, big idea we explored

here was how sand beaches are just constantly in motion.

Right, sand is little, it moves, the waves move at the wind moves at.

Right, and this quality of being ever in motion actually helps the beach to absorb and

survive the impact of storms and flooding and all that.

But I think that even though the actual beach is always in motion, our idea of the beach,

the beach that we remember, has a way of getting frozen at a particular time.
