To the Editor:

I opened last week’s SandPaper and saw the SpeakEasy story on the mystery of a pair of missing shoes. My immediate reaction was “enough already!” I’m tired of reading about people leaving their sandals on the top of the dunes and later finding somebody had literally walked off with their flip-flops.

Much to my surprise, the column was not at all what I expected. I was pleasantly surprised to read a very beautifully written and poignant story.

But … that still didn’t stop me from thinking of all the people complaining about their sandals gone missing.
