Hit the beach !

Post by fretless »

it's funny we live less than 2 miles from the coast but I haven't been in like 20 years ! Until Saturday that is . Luckily I wasn't down South where it fell in and killed some poor peeps but I can see how that happens . It was super sketchy on this "path"

yeah man, go enjoy nature whenever you can. I used to go to the beach all the time when I lived in CA. Not necessarily in the water but I would just sit in the sand and chill. Hell, I am in PA now and already been to the beach here (NJ) a few times this year.

That's a beautiful spot man. Can't believe you haven't been in such a long time! My girl had to drag my ass back to the plane last time we were at the water.

I live on a island. I am near the ocean every moment. I would die if I had to move away from it. Like, literally.

yeah... I'm not a big beach fan.... mostly because the ones that are convenient are usually over crowded and not relaxing at all, then there's the sand getting in to places where sand just doesn't belong......I do love the ocean though, taking the boat out and chilling is more my pace....

I hear ya , it's a bit of effort and discomfort involved but tail watching and beach weed win out .

I love the beach and totally miss it living in Lubbock. I'd likely be at the beach once a week if I lived 2 miles from it.

I love the climate being so close , it's a blessing , always cooler and though often socked in it's helpful to keep the heat down, We do get over there now and then but being so close and getting that morning sea air is one of the joys in life .

so many cool and strange places just right around Los Angeles . It's fun to see all those places we have right in our backyards on the toob . Though sometimes it's a giant PITA when they are filming in your hood .
