California State Park officials say that two Petaluma children who were swept off the Sonoma Coast on Sunday remain missing. State Parks Officer Sgt. Tim Murphy said huge surfs of 20-feet yesterday prevented search teams from going onto the beach. Search parties did look on the shoreline from the bluffs and around Salmon Creek beach. According to the Press Democrat, the two children are named Anna and John Wyman. The father, named Michael Wayman, was pronounced dead after his wife and bystanders brought him back to shore.

North Marine Park’s grand staircase and elevated walkway AN iconic stone staircase reinstated as part of the restoration of an historic North-East park is now available for visitors to enjoy over the winter period. The Grand Promenade Staircase is a key feature in the National Lottery funded £3.2m project to transform North Marine Park, at South Shields seafront, back to how it was when it first opened in 1890. As an important element of the park’s original layout, the promenade staircase had helped to link the lower and upper parts of the park, providing attractive pathways to view the sea, river and coastline.
