Observation of the Day!
On the ocean walk from Coronado Shores to the Hotel Del Coronado a local artist of sorts made beautiful sand designs in the cul-de-sac between the Shores and the Del for the enjoyment of those passing by. He creates his art by sprinkling a little sand on the street and then using a broom creates these small bits of natural art. Everybody loved them except one jerk old man whose condo in the Shores overlooked the art scene. He complained that by using sand it was hurting the beach or something like that. What a jerk, crank and dare I say asshole. He went so far as to contact the Coronado police and the old artist was issued a ticket and forbidden to make his art. It must be a remote ordinance concerning the care of the natural habitat of the beach. Hey, it's the beach, sand blows up on the street, naturally. It is hard to imagine anyone being so petty. But you have never lived at the Shores.
My friend Tom was passing on is way to the Del when some boys on bicycles, carrying their surf boards, ask Tom what was going on. Tom explained and one kid said, "Aw Dude, we really liked his stuff." Tom was thrilled that for a minute he was a "DUDE!"
Have a nice day!
