Day 198 - Elk, CA
This town has 208 people and two names: Elk & Greenwood. The original founders called the town "Greenwood", but there was another town further inland with the same name, so the mail was always getting mixed up. The Post Office decided to call it Elk instead, but both names are still used by the inhabitants.

This is about 100 feet from where the river empties into the Pacific Ocean. The seals come up onto the beach to get warm. Two volunteers keep watch during the day to keep people far enough away so they don't disturb the seals.
