I don't really understand the science-y words, but I DO understand shipping and customer satisfaction, and that is just RIDICULOUS that yall're having to go through so much BS just to get your orders. Someone in that company needs to get on the ball.

He arrives mid-afternoon, and the cottage is empty - the kids must all be at the beach - so he dumps his duffel on one of the unoccupied beds on the sleep porch that has become his and Nate's room over his last few visits.

Text me when you're oscar mike.He exchanges boots and jeans for board shorts and flip-flops, and heads out to check the beach.
