As the famous philosopher, Dick Grayson, once said, "Holy Heatwave, Batman." Today's temperature is in the mid-60's with a stiff breeze. When I arrived at the West Sands Beach this morning the wind was blowing the sand from the top of the beach to the shore. It looked very eery and beautiful because the sand was 3-4 inches off the surface and it was constant. Once you started running in it, it wasn't beautiful at all. Afterwards, my shower floor looked like I took the West Sands Beach home with me.
Last night I went to the Drouthy Neebors Pub where they held a trivia contest. Talk about esoterica. Here's one of the questions, "collectively, who weighs more, all the women in the world or all the men in the world?" (answer tomorrow) Granted you have a 50% chance of getting it right but, 1: who cares and 2: who weighed them? Here's another, (this one I got right) what politician and scientist invented daylight savings time even though it was not instituted until well after his death. Here's a hint, he has a degree from St. Andrews University. (answer also tomorrow)
My evening didn't end at Drouthy's. I went late night exploring. My exploring ended when I had to hop a six foot high fence in someone's back garden. I'm not sure what possessed me to do this last night but I did find a late night lamb kebab place that I wasn't familiar with. Exploring has its rewards, ask Columbus.
Until next time, I remain,
With sand in my shoes and everywhere else.

Michael,
As I have become quite addicted to your journal entries, I am losing patience waiting for the answers to the trivia questions. Please post immediately! Hope you are well, and on the beach getting more sand in your shoes (better than in your bathing suit).
Demanding, aren't I?
