All answers correct except The Sculpin. However, that curmudgeon gets honorable mention because of the following story:
Last year, a friend of mine, single dad, brought his two kids down for a few days at our place. On the day we were planning to head back north, he
drove his kids and ours the quarter mile or so down to the beach for a few hours while my wife and I cleaned the house and packed up. When they were
long overdue, I became suspicious, and when I saw the kids walking back up to the house without my friend or his vehicle, I got more worried. Turns
out that after locking his vehicle (Lexus SUV) -- which was parked precisely where I am standing in the photo -- he had handed his key to his youngest
kid to hold (read that as "lose") while they all jumped off the high dunes at the south end of the beach. Of course, the kid disputed this and
claimed never to have been handed the key, but whatever. The fact was that at some point, the key fell in the sand, and an hour and a half of
searching resulted only in blisters. My buddy said he thought he had a spare key in the glove box, so we spent another hour trying to pop a lock open
with a coat hanger, to no avail. With the day waning, I told him that we had to go to Plan B, and handed him my log splitter, advising him to use the
back end. One busted window and some cardboard and duct tape later, we got in, got the key out of the glove box, and he was good to go.
Now when he visits, I require him to bring an extra key and wear it in a lanyard around his neck.
