I think you stepped on some old Chihuahua beach poop.

Also, get to a podiatrist, stat.

Last time I was there there was little balls of sand about two thirds the size of a golf ball rolling around in the surf everywhere. If you picked one of them up and squeezed it oil would come out of it.

The sandy growth along the bottom of the foot's epidermis is alarming.

They’re fairly common, Roger depending on the winds and currents direction.

Not necessarily an actual spill but they can just ooze up from the ocean floor.

A spill would typically be a visible sheen on the water and on the beach.

The tarballs come from oil spills that eventually sunk & collected on the bottom. As time presses on the oil forms into little “patties” and work their way to the beaches getting deposited on the beach by the surf.

Then you step in it and track into your vehicle where nothing, and I mean nothing, will remove the stain.

Most times Oil is lighter than water and comes to the surface.

I know my point is they make a big deal out of any spill, but it oozes up from the gulf floor naturally. Always has.

Used to see it a lot on FL Atlantic coast. Don’t recall seeing much, if any, on the panhandle beaches.

Little turpentine on a rag would take it off.
