Midday light creates shadows as a surfer heads up the stairs after a session at Steamer Lane. New stairs and a stainless steel railing were created in 2022 by Tom Ralston Concrete to replace a stairway that was crumbling and dangerous. A 2011 inductee to the Decorative Concrete Hall of Fame, Tom Ralston has been working in the concrete industry since 1964 and took over the company when his father Jim Ralston retired in 1989.
