I can see why some picky vacation goers would complain but to me it's just part of the cycle of life on this planet.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8039370.post-68522478902938365632018-07-09T07:13:06.991-04:002018-07-09T07:13:06.991-04:00That's a beautiful beach to go to .. um ... we...That's a beautiful beach to go to .. um ... weed.
