What Happens When....

What happens when 7000 beach vacationers wake to a rainy morning?

After an extra morning snooze they head for the nearby shopping outlets.

What happens when some 5000 cars descend on parking lots that can accommodate 4000 cars?

Pandemonium.

Such was the case today according to Motivated Mom who went in search of sustainance during her lunch break - and found access to all nearby restaurants and eateries blocked by thousands of perpetually circling cars.

Had some enterprising young men had the proper resources, I suspect they could have put a substantial amount of cash in their pockets by offering refueling on the fly. I'm guessing folks would have paid top dollar to have had five gallons of gas dumped in the fuel tanks of their cars to avoid losing out on the next available parking place.

There was a bright side to all of this. Forced to look for alternative lunch options, Motivated Mom found a new "kickin" food vendor offering superior quality for below market price.

I won't share the name. We'll keep Motivated Mom's find safe for the local residents.
