After failing to get strands for the first time (I had no idea the children's author or his books and finally had to use hints) I surprised myself by getting wordle in 2. Easy day at the office. I am SO lucky to have landed this route of mine. You guys liked the trucks on my route. This guy was selling these two cars last month:     |

You don't wanna park that on the street.

Someone just bought this at a Goodwill for $10. It pays to be famous.  |

At least they paid 10 bucks, not that you profited. And I am sorry about that.
For perspective, 9,000 hi-res scans of my father's photographs are available for free on the Library of Congress website.

I had the 2nd one. My first car. Got it used in 1970. It blew up on me (oil leak) in 1971. Fun car when it ran. |

Rip currents are easy to manage if you know what to look for. Surfers use them to get outside of the breaking waves, sort of like an invisible rope tow. Of course they are not really invisible. What happens is that braking waves push water towards the shore, raising the water level. The water contained in the higher level seeks equilibrium and forms a current back out towards sea. This “rip current” is visible as a stretch of choppy water. To get out of a rip current, all one needs to do is is swim at a 90° angle across the current, usually towards breaking waves and let the whitewater push you into shore. People who are not experienced in the ocean tend to be afraid of the breaking waves, but really the whit water is your friend and will push you into the beach.
