Life Is A Beach (t)

Old Boris was quite a web weaver. In fact, he was so good, he had a contract with the City to weave volleyball nets. In return, Boris had his own beach chair and all the insects he could eat free of charge. Things were great until Phylis Flatbottom sat in Boris' chair. The City is looking for a new web weaver.

Clock Two (t)

Ringing N. Myears lived in this clock tower for three years. It was a mutually beneficial arrangement with the City. Ringing maintained the clockworks and had a place to live.

The above story is fictitious. Ringing didn't maintain the clockworks and was evicted after two months for vagrancy.

Unusual Day

The pizza was hot and the beer was cold. Maybe a little too much beer was consumed. No one noticed the fish swimming through the air on Pacific Avenue.

Wasted (t)

Lex Boomler sat here all day enjoying the ocean view. He was amazed how the waves seem to undulate in different colors for hours on end. By evening, Lex realized he should research his wild mushroom choices a little better for his salads.

Rapture (t)

Vel O. Ciraptor loved this vantage point. It was a great place to decide what to have for dinner. Such variety.

Cohabitation (t)

Pouch the Pelican doesn't mind sharing his rock with other birds and animals, but, he draws the line when it comes to cohabitating with sea otters. As far as Pouch is concerned, sea otters are nasty little scavengers always stealing his meals when he has the hiccups and a fish pops out.

Beach Day (t)

Crush has been looking forward to this day all year. He's craving the taste of salt after months of algae infested fresh water. Maybe he'll find his brother's shell. Wouldn't that be a story to tell everyone back at the pond.

Insight (t)

Tim wasn't sure why, but, every time he came to this area to surf, he felt like he was being watched. Not, like from the people casually standing along the bluffs, but, like being targeted by some mechanical tracking device. It gave him the willies and certainly interrupted his concentration.

Window Shopping

Cecil the Tree brought his kids here every night and stood in front of this window. Cecil would tell the same story every night about how his younger brother didn't obey his parents and now, you can buy his body parts in this store!
