Today I had the unusual experience of getting complimented by a police officer on a bike.
Was approaching an intersection where he was stopped by a stop sign observing the increased
activity of people crowding to the beach after so much rain.

Uncharacteristically, I came to a complete stop at the stop sign and heard him observe, "wow",
that's a really nice stop!" I did not have the heart to tell him that in the off-season I usually just
slowed and looked both ways without coming to a complete stop.
