Fresh Water
The condos to my south reflect in the outwash from one of the storm sewer drains the big construction project is looking to replace.
And here's where I get all nostalgic and lament a thing that's probably good overall but sad on a personal level. In the past, these outflows have been one of the parts of Myrtle Beach I've most enjoyed. The sea birds like to gather around them, because they're good places to get a drink of fresh water and wash all the salt off their feathers. I wonder how their absence will affect sea bird populations, or if flocks will shift to places closer to fresh water sources. Kids like to play in them and collect sand from them for sand castles. I like to watch them form miniaturized topography while I get all up in my head about the flow of rivers and creation of canyons and the nature of a chaotic universe. They seem like a little thing, but Myrtle Beach will change once they've been plugged up and redirected under ground. I don't know how, but it will be different.
