The other day while 6 was sitting on his front porch, in his trusty rocking chair, jug of moonshine at 6’s side, dreaming 6’s life away, a profound thought entered 6’d mind! It’s almost time for PVV and FFV. The flowers are in full bloom, the trees have their leaves, the grass is growing, the pollen is covering everything as if we a light coating of snow! To say it simply, spring has sprung! Ok let’s come back to reality, a reminder alarm from 6’s trusty cell phone alerted 6 that it was time to look for a place to stay on the beach! So why don’t we focus on summer at the beach!
The other day 622 and 6 were sitting down eating our lunch will watching a classic episode of Bluey guess where they were going, yes to the beach for their holiday for those who are interested it was Bluey Season 1 Episode 26 “Bluey’s sunny adventure”. Instead of all the non-Heeler fans asking what the heck does this have to with anything! Welllll…4….., 6 was remined that the beach table and beach tent had not been cleaned since FFV 25! It was a nice sunny day, so 6 got 622 to “shake a leg” and get off of the kitchen chair (or in 622’s case get back on the kitchen chair), and go outside and get all wet! If one was to use logic, one would think that instead of washing some beach paraphernalia, why would not someone with an ounce of sense take a 90-degree sunny spring day, and wash all of the winter salt from their car. The answer is simple, the car would just get covered with pollen, while the beach paraphernalia, could be nice and neatly be folded up, and put back in their rightful place of honor in 6’s office! 6 and 622 started with the Shibumi, that was really a fun job. There was so much sand on the t Shibumi, that the driveway looked like a beach, so the reality is 6 is not sure how much sand was truly washed off of the Shibumi, after all, we all know how wet sand likes to stick to things. Well, 622 came up with a solution, pack it away, and over time it will dry. When you get on PVV, while 7 and 8 are putting on their sunscreen, 6 and 4 can set up the Shibumi, if we got all the sand out of the t Shibumi when we washed it, then 7 and 8 would not get covered with last year’s sand, if they do wellll 7& 8, we did not do a good job of cleaning. We all know now where 622 gets her superior intelligence! Next was the beach table, 14 days of Rex, 6’s best estimate is 35-40 bottles! Take one guess as to what that nice table looked like with 14 days of 7 using it! 622 had to put the power washer on it while 6 used a hole tub of Oxy Clean and Brillo pads and there are still signs of Rex on the table. One may wonder why 6 did not just dump the table in the dumpster for 7 to find it next year, for that answer you have to ask Mr. Mustard. All cleaned and dried, folded up and ready for PVV and FFV 26! By this time, it was 2:30 and dunny time!
Each year 6 is kind enough to give some rules for the beach. Rule 1: May 1 the turtle brigade spotted their 1stturtle nest of the year! Rule when walking back from the Sanctuary, after a snifter or two of Brandy, and casual conversation with regards to the two portraits on display at each end of the grand hall, 7 open your beepers and keep a keen eye out for a rather large object right in front of you! This way you might not trip over a nesting turtle. Rule 2: Pick up the trash when one departs the beach. This year the island has joined a “Special” environmental group from around the world, whose goal is to clean beaches. What a fantastic idea! There are now wooden pools placed strategically at the end of designated boardwalks, The poles have several plastic buckets on hooks attached to the pole. Honestly, it looks like someone got a 4x4X8 foot piece of lumber, slapped some white wash on it, drove several metal hangers and hanged Lowes 5-gallon buckets. They then put a plastic sign on top of the post, saying how one can use the “recyclable” buckets and bags to keep the beach clean. One has to wonder, if those buckets can hold all of the “glass” wine/beer/etc. bottles that are consumed on the beach in the lavish people’s districts? Or don’t they know that every 20 yards there are currently trach containers? Sounds like KICA is just trying to keep up with the Jones’s.
More rules next time, it’s time to go, banana is starting!
