Life or a Reasonable Facsimile

This week I went to the beach, I have a lake within 10 minutes of my house so trips to the beach happen pretty often. I have found a nice secluded area where I can be assured that the crowds will stay away and the area has a nice grassy area, a dock for easy water entry and of course a sandy beach area. As this place is secluded it is used mostly by locals like me who tripped over it. 

On this particular day it had started out a little gray but the sun poked through just before midday so My rubber arm was twisted and off to the lake I went with a magazine to read and my trusty IPod. Even though this beach is not on a tropical island or somewhere in the tropics it is still enjoyable to visit. While this is not the perfect beach (somewhere on a tropical island with bikini clad natives) it serves as a quick getaway. I am practicing to be a beach bum so when I do find that perfect beach I will be ready to go. Of course practicing to be a beach bum includes practicing my Margarita making skills and consumption of said margaritas as well.

Oh it is so tough living as a Man of Leisure!
