picton

it was a beautiful day at sandbanks today. i had so much fun!!


i went with melissa, landy and tim, but we were there for about 10 or 15 minutes when jason erb came walking down the beach! what are the chances?!? so we had the wonderful company of the erbs as well!!

there were huge waves the whole time, so much fun! it was neat because we'd have to jump along with them or else be semi-drowned. i swear they were at least 9 feet tall. poor laney kept being sloshed in the face by the waves, that's not as fun, but we did come up with a namesake verb – if you got a wave in the face then you'd been "laney-ed".

i would have to say... i was one of about 3 women on that beach with a one piece swimsuit on!! wow, it was very interesting. i need to get me a tanktini, but its gonna hafta wait til next summer.

melissa and i were pleasantly surprised by the large quantity of attractive young men around. its very unusual to see them in masses like that, and we did literary have them on both sides. we were continuously amused by the one guy wearing the leopard print speedo – presumably on a dare – it was pretty funny.

i've developed quite the sunburn. i applied sunscreen twice!! it always takes a couple of hours to show up. oh well. i guess i missed my shoulders and back the second time. i'll need to be more careful in the future.

thou my best thought, by day or by night,
waking or sleeping, thy presence my light.

Les, I have learned a great deal from your beach wisdom... having a "groove" is indeed very comfortable. Getting 'Laney-ed" by the waves is not quite as comfortable but aside from having a small lake up my nose, it was VERY FUN!!! We must do this again soon :)

ah Les... now the only thing we failed to to was to bring one of those attractive men back to Kingston. Do you think there is something more attractive about someone because they are at the beach?

....probably because they are half naked.

thanks for the good times!

you could be on to something. a nice body makes up for an ugly face (i'm sure this works for ugly women too).

however, i'm sure there were a lot of guys there with "great personalities" too! refering to their lack of other selling points...

for now i'm happy just admiring from a far ;)

Actually I think that the leopard speedo WAS a pleasant surprise as well.... They totally enjoyed seeing us gawk at it. It is one of the better beach speedos that I have seen, as long as it is a joke speedo :)
