Strolling along the path at Brackett's Landing North on Sunday – agreeable with blue skies, a gentle warmth, families on the beach, couples holding hands – we couldn't help but overhear a youngish guy on his phone: "Yeah, it's nice. It's like Laguna."

Shh.

A nice compliment, we think. While at the same time resisting the urge to pull the young fella over: "Come back in three months."

The point: Enjoy our glorious summer and, like the majority of folks spotted at the beach and also partaking in Walkable Edmonds, remember the mask.
