Don't Forget The Coconuts


We were heading out on a road trip this morning when Max made an unexpected stop at Whole Foods. We were a little late but a short stop would give Anna time to reprogram the GPS; she can get a touch car sick trying to read in a moving car.

While we waited I was guessing how much beef jerky Max would buy. 5 pounds? 10 pounds? All reasonable answers. So I was shocked when he returned with just a few very green looking coconuts.

I keep forgetting about his time in the Solomon Islands. He once had to use coconut water instead of medical saline after a rather nasty cyclone. Ever since then he rarely travels without them. It's his secret security blanket.
