I've never left the country. When I was a kid, we went to the ocean, and it was hotter than what we were used to. Either my brother or I left a crayon binder (a plastic open-close binder filled with crayons) in the back of the car, up behind the back seat, and it melted into one huge pile of multicolored crayon wax!!

The gorgeous aqua / torqoise color of the Chicago river running thru downtown....
As a New Yawkuh, i was used to the ugly / murky color of the East river in Manhattan...
Very reminiscent of the Caribbean, who knew ?
