Beachy Mess


Every once in a while, some brave soul must venture out and climb into the back seats of the mini-van to discover the horrors of the unknown tucked away in seat crevices, storage bins, floors, pockets, and under seats.  It’s amazing to see what has been living there the past months.  Thanks to the kids for making this extra special.  Here’s what I found today:

Beachy Mess

Petrified French Fry, ew
sticky Sundae cup goo
dirty napkins, a few

And lots of beach sand too

2 lonely straws hide
3 pennies were spied

unidentifiable dried goop
& several tiny pebbles to boot
An empty water bottle to scoop

More Beach Sand, POOP

Empty gatorade bottle
plastic wrappers of mottle
Some necks I want to throttle

and MORE beach sand, mind boggle

    One kid hated pickles, another despised lettuce and yet another could not stomach onions……so they stuffed what they refused to eat under the back seat.

    And before putting the car up for sale, her dad cleaned…….
