Ahhhhh yesss, the burning throat and lungs.....
Fish bones in the feet....
And the lovely smells of the sea....
(The dolphin carcass at the Skyway was the worst! You could smell it driving on the bridge with the windows up.) East Beach had a giant sea turtle and hundreds of dead reds along the shore.
That's when I remember meeting Bob Shady, when he donated the use of the Unimog truck for hauling all that sushi & seaweed salad down to the restaurant, (or something like that....)
Anybody hungry?

BTW, my solution for cold hands last week was surgical gloves. Works like a charm and I was able to stay out for about 4 hours total in 40ish degrees. (I only lasted 20 minutes with non-waterproof gloves, which suck the heat from your hands.)
Next time, I might even go for maximum style with the super steezy yellow kitchen gloves and some duct tape.
