Surf

When I was visiting my friend, Kiel, down in Brownsville, Texas, he skipped teaching one day to take me out to South Padre Island.

We sat in the surf, staring out at the ocean. "You know what I love about sitting like this?" I said.

"What's that?" Kiel asked.

"That you can feel the surf eroding the sand beneath you. That if we sit here long enough without moving, we will sink beneath the water."
