So beaches...

[vraiblonde]

I'm not really a beach person. I like to be by the beach and catch glimpses of the water, but I don't like to walk on the beach, or lay on the beach, or go in the water except a quick ankle wade just to say I did it.

But I see people all the time....just sitting on the beach looking out at the water. They don't even have a book or anything, they're just sitting there. And friends will go on vacation and post pics of them sitting on the beach.

I don't get it. Why is that fun?

My favorite part is the sound of the waves. No people. No seagulls. Just the waves.

See, that looks really boring to me. When we hit the road I was like, oh yay! Now we can do all those Insta pics of us gazing out at the ocean.....and yeah, we're not ocean gazers. We're festival goers and barstool sitters and local chow eaters and fish catchers and kayak paddlers, occasionally we're mountain hikers, but not ocean gazers.

They make CDs for that.

Typically, I like to do something like walk on the beach, because I find that invigorating. Sometimes, though, sitting and looking at the water and listening to the waves ia very relaxing and calming. (and you know I am not one to sit doing literally nothing for long!)

I usually just recline in a lounge chair on the beach and watch the water but it's usually after I spent a couple of hours, pre-dawn, chumming the shallows.

Let me rephrase:

I'm sure there's an 👁❤ channel for that.

I like long walks on the beach, Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain....

No way, I just bought my Pure Moods cd a couple of years ago in.....1994. Damn.

Where's his fishing pole?

I love being outside and find nature of all kinds, beautiful and relaxing. I love listening to and watching the waves, and feeling the the wind and sun. As I get older, I like the sand less and less though. I also enjoy people watching at the beach. I don't like super crowded beaches, but a few people is ok.

 

[TPD]

People watching. It’s all about the people watching!

Feeding the gulls. It's all about feeding the gulls!

They love my pancakes and they really know how to clear a beach for me.
