One young surfer girl, Ryder Board, was the first person to see  Godzilla approaching the shore as she was paddling in. She heard several thunderous "groinks" and turned to see his behemoth body wading through the water. As Godzilla got closer, he let out a few more deafening groinks and started waving his stubby arms around, as if to chase Miss Board off the beach. Our surfer girl obliged and beat a hasty retreat before he got too close. Other were not so lucky.

A group of surfers down the beach toward the pier felt the sand shift under their feet as Godzilla approached. At first, they did not know what was happening. Then, they saw Godzilla striding quickly toward them, "ranting and raving". Said another surfer, "I think he was trying to chase us away". They were nearly trampled before dodging Godzilla.  One surfer lost his board as they raced off the beach.

A couple of joggers gave a similar, terrifying account. They thought Godzilla was throwing a fit, as he stood in the surf with his arms raised, blasting them with his hot breath with each groinky bellow. The joggers sprinted away, fearing that Godzilla might flame them with fire from his mouth. Oddly, however, onlookers on the pier observed Godzilla chase even a seagull away. It was as if Godzilla thought he owned the whole beach and all creatures on it were trespassers.

The beach patrol was called multiple times. Unfortunately, they showed up a little too late to contact witnesses or to verify the reporting of Godzilla's strange behavior. The beach officers were upset by the "mischievous,  prank calls". Again, no reports were filed.

What do we make of Godzilla's moody antics in Cayucos? So far, Godzilla has not wandered inland more than a few hundred feet. Will Godzilla keep his distance from urban life?  Only Godzilla knows! And where in the world will Godzilla show up next?
