soylent green is people

O.K. Maybe I was over-reacting with the Soylent Green reference. But our walk on the beach last night was a little spooky, as just wads and wads of seaweed kept washing ashore. The kid was able to enjoy some surf time, as long as she wasn't afraid to share the ocean with the Triffids, I mean plant life.

red flags

We've been having some crazy weather in South Florida. Red flags at the beach almost every day because of the rip currents, and a very long jellyfish season. The beach has been a place to go and take a walk, but not a place to really spend too much time, and certainly not swim. A storm far enough away to not bring rain, but close enough to cause havoc with the tides dumped a ton of seaweed on the beach yesterday, As I was taking a morning walk and some photos I ran into a local who said he had never seen anything like it. Pretty impressive, huh?
