Just Another Day at the Beach


When it gets hot, wasting the day away at the beach is hard to top. With that in mind, we decided to head southeast to the Pacific Ocean and the Tahara City beaches last weekend. It was about a two hour drive, which was a little frustrating due to traffic jams, but the view and relaxation once we arrived was worth it.

Well, minus the string banana hammock this guy was sporting.



My wife said it best, "It's like a train wreck. You really don't want to look, but...what is he thinking?" The funny thing is, he has two of these puppies, and thought it best to sport them on the same day. Prior to the white one, he had a florescent orange hammock on. Perhaps, he thought he needed to tone it down a notch, so he switched to the white mid-afternoon. Yeah, that'll draw less attention!

Well, despite the banana hammock setting up shop to our right, we enjoyed the warm Pacific water, a nice lunch, the beautiful view to our right, and the mountains behind us. We lucked out on timing as well because this isn't the beach season yet. Apparently, it starts with the beginning of summer next month. We did, however, see the crews setting up the stands and painting the docks for the crowds that are sure to flock to the beach when summer 'officially' starts.
