    Saggy, Saggy, Saggy... what to do with you? I have serious problems with "going to the beach."


    • First of all it excludes all the folks from New Jersey. They don't have beaches. They go to The Shore.
    • Secondly, it would have to be all those half-nekked folk. Them half-nekked and mostly-nekked folk really bother me a lot. They always seem to put out their little volleyball nets near all the good fishing spots.
    • Thirdly, it is environmentalist. Quite a few years ago I went to the shore without my fishing gear. A waste of a perfectly good trip to water but sometimes you have to do what you have to do to keep the family peace. Anyway, I hadn't been in a while and had to buy myself a pair of trunks before we left. All Walmart had in my size was a pair of black trunks with a white panel on the front. We get down to the shore and I pitch my stuff up close to the high tide mark. I wasn't there five minutes when I hear this long-haired feller yelling to this girl, "Like, dude, this is so wrong. We have to help." She stopped texting long enough to exclaim, "Ewww, do I have to touch it?" Next thing I know they are both pouring water on me and the long-haired feller was saying, "Like, don't worry Shamu, we'll get you back in the water...."
    The beach, shore, call it what you want, but I ain't going.

    I'm not a huge beach lover but I DO live on Long Island so we go. We have ocean beaches and beaches on the Long Island Sound. We have a private beach 2 blocks away too that we love to go to in the off season. It's GREAT to walk in the fall and winter. :)

    We share a weekend place with my sister and her husband in Cape May, NJ, and a home with our whole family in Gulf Shores.

    We also have friends in the Keys and will trade houses with them for a couple of weeks in the summer.

    Also, I love going to Ocean City, Md.

    I don't mind going to the beach. I don't particularly like to go lay out--I can lay out at home, and I don't like doing it there, either. I like playing in the water or walking along looking for shells etc, or just thinking. No particular beach. I have been to Oak Island several times in NC. And to Myrtle and Garden City. And corpus Christie

    I've only been to the salt-water beaches of Galveston and Gulfport.

    I'm not sure that they qualify as real beaches.

    Our mild spring now is ended. Our cool afternoons,
    As I foretold you, are now spread over,
    And are melted into summer; into hot summer.
    And like the idle parting of this season,
    The cloud-capped moisture, the gorgeous rainbows,
    The solemn windstorm, the great ambiance itself,
    Yea all which it conduces shall dissolve
    And like this pending sweltry display withered,
    Leave not a breeze behind. Summer is such stuff
    As sweat collects on, and its yearly lease
    Begins with Memorial Day.
