My strategy for choosing a backpack: highest number of clever pockets per dollar spent.

A dead bivalve foot massage on thin-sole shoes: highly recommended.

I like reading in a bathtub. Buoyancy is not required.

I like wading.

But. Waves always come just when the sand settles down and I can almost see the creatures under water. It makes me feel like someone is intentionally causing waves at these intervals and I really wan to ask that person to stop.

So frustrating.
