The worst part about finding shoes on the beach is only finding 1 shoe. Sometimes the other half will wash up in a day or two, but most of the shoes get washed away. While I have not needed to buy a new pair of sandals in years, it still breaks down to alot of trash.
What do you do? Viable shoes get taken to the Community Resource center. Right now I have 16 pair ready to be reused, but what to do with the singles?

My shoe fence needs alot of work, but I never have to tell anyone, where to park!
