I don’t remember a time in my life where I’ve been consistently this hot and sweaty. I sit and sweat. I stand and sweat. I walk and drip sweat. I can’t get rid of it. I have even showered multiple times more than usual (and that’s saying a lot coming from me).

Let me think of a time…hmm… Nope, never.

Also, today I’ve accepted the fact that sand will be a permanent accessory for the rest of my life. Every article of clothing, every book, my pillows and blanket, my car, etc. The list could go on. I’ll spare you a bore and fill you in: don’t expect to come to the ocean and leave without a souvenir in all the things you own.

Sincerely,
Midwesterner braving the south
