Dear Jackass with a Leaf Blower:
I’m sure you thought you were being efficient by clearing the way for Easter sunrise service attendees.
Sunrise means dawn, though. And the beach is a popular vacation spot. People on vacation like to sleep. Often, they choose the beach so that they can be lulled by the gentle sound of the ocean.
Leaf blowers are not a gentle sound. At 5:19 a.m., they are not a welcome addition to a beach vacation.
What were you blowing, anyway? Tybee isn’t exactly New England in the fall, sporting a lush carpet of leaves.
Were you blowing sand? Why? People coming to a sunrise service at the pier have to accept a little sand. It is the beach, for crying out loud.
If I see you again, I’m going to use your leaf blower for another purpose. (Let me give you a hint: Your next colonoscopy will be easy breezy.)
I want you and your obnoxious friends — you know, the car alarm, barking dog and loud, drunk girl — to get off the island.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Beth
