It was a beautiful day outside.

It was a beautiful day outside, which meant it was a beautiful day outside which meant it was a perfect day for Jack to play at the beach

He loved walking over to the beach in his neighborhood because he just never know what you just might find over there.

You know there's all kinds of mysteries at beaches and beaches come in all different shapes and sizes so there might be a beach at a pond a beach at a lake or a beach at the ocean

but all beaches have some kind of magical abilities to to create some awesome adventures.

But Jack was not ready for what he was about to find at the beach today.

All right, I'll see you later.

Jack waved to his parents and he walked out the door, holding a bucket in one hand with some shovels,

a net in the other, oh, and a backpack with some water and snacks. I hope I find some really

cool shells today said Jack as he was walking along the sidewalk headed to the

beach. Oh, what's that smell?

He said.

Oh, it sounds like some nasty, nasty coconuts that just went really bad.

Oh, have you ever smelled rotten coconuts before?

Oh, it's pretty atrocious if you get close enough.

But it's strange, because usually, yeah, you do have to get close enough to a coconut to smell it if it's rotten.

How did Jack smell it from all the way back here?

Jack was pretty confused because he never smelled such a horrendous rotten coconut smell before.
