Photos of a Visit to the Lolita Cheese Factory near Eureka, California - and the Happy Cows Near FERNDALE in the Beautiful EEL River Valley...

Dolos are Giant Concrete Objects that are used to Build Breakwaters... The ODD SHAPE prevents Ocean Waves from Washing them Away... Originally, The Jetties Were Built using Giant Rocks but... Storms Washed them Away... 
 They are about TEN Feet from End to End...
