Oh yippee, you're having a vacation. Good on you. After all you've been through, you've earned it. I'm not a big beach goer as I burn to a crisp. When I was a kid, I would get really burned and my mom would put wet teabags on me to soak up the heat. So I'll just watch videos of the waves coming in and out, sip a mocktail, and pet the cats.

In coastal Virginia, we have, on occasion, coyotes lurk at the dune line, foxes also. A possum sauntered by our community pool located about 50 yards from the surf. Ghost crabs fall into the pool and will pinch your feet if you're not looking, but the guards fish them out pretty quickly. I think this all goes to show we have encroached on their territories. But the worst of the worst are sand fleas in your swimsuit. The only way to avoid is no swimsuit!
