The OB Rag received the following message today from Marina, the OB Mermaid:
To the humans of Ocean Beach and all of San Diego
I want to thank you for the warm and wonderful reception you gave me upon my arrival. I came to OB upon the tides of the full moon in hopes of catching a glimpse of those who might still believe in the ancient legends.
All of your comments and well wishes were so generous and gracious and I was so excited to see the families and little children who came to have their picture taken and just wish me well.
Although I had hoped to stay through the summer, there are some who found my appearance disturbing so I have had to depart early. I wish for you all a lovely summer. Spend time at the beach and keep your eye to the sea. Perhaps the currents and wills will enable me to return one day.
Love to you all, Marina

Hahaha, lord, we need this lighter side :-) I hope Marina returns to OB one of these days!
The Mermaid was better than any piece put up by the Port District.
you will be sorely missed!
I miss Marina and am thankful I got to see her! Thank you for such MAGIC and HAPPINESS you brought to our part of the world! <3
