I was very impessed by the beach, much bigger than I thought it would be.
And harder. At least when you get closer to the water, which was still a ways away. Like putting your towel down on concrete.
Ok, I guess it's time. Meet the Trippers.
My happy wife to be finally out of the car.
Hey, I picked the car. She picked the color.
now they get scarier
When she had first picked up the film, she was sitting on the couch looking at them by herself.
Then I heard her crack up.
"Oh brother. You look ridiculous sucking in your stomach."
"What?" "I never sucked in my stomach." "Your nuts."
"Here, the cellulite, I mean celluloid doesn't lie."
And she hands it to me.
Hmm. Looks like she may have a point there.
"I was just taking a nice , deep breath of that fresh, salty air, that's all."
"Right."
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
We lied there and just kind of looked around in silence for a long time.
It was so loud between the wind and the waves that it wasn't really easy to talk. Two beers , I mean two hours later, I noticed that it seemed to be getting louder. It happens so gradually that it takes awhile to notice.
That's Diane in the center, way out there guys were actually surfing.
I kept looking for Moondoggie.
When we were back by our towels, I looked and saw a kid go by on a skateboard like he had a jetpack on. I couldn't believe it, he had to be doing about 35 miles an hour, I though it was a motorized skateboard on the hard packed sand down by the water.
Then another kid flew by.This time I saw the line from his back going up and it was a KITE! pulling him. It was that windy. I had to admit, I don't skateboard but that looked like fun.
Soon we figured we had enough sun for the first day and headed back to the entrance where this little building called THE Beachcomber was sitting.
Big mistake.
"OH honey, let's go in and check it out, just for one, ok?"
"I checked it out already, nothing special."
"When did you do that?"
"WHile you were changing."
"C'mon, park over there."
Over there turned out to be knee deep white fluffy sand. It was like trudging through a snow drift.
goodnight kids, gotta go meet her for karaoke.
Yes, you heard right. As you can tell by the photos I have no pride. bye
