Walking barefoot on the beach makes me sleep better at night.

I never go barefoot. As a kid I once stepped on a board with a nail in it and it went thru my foot. Another time I beached our boat and when I jumped into the water I landed on a broken bottle and sliced my foot open......

“There’s nothing to compare to walking on a white sand beach on the Gulf coast watching the sunset. Heaven on earth.”
That white sand is just a step out the door from where I live in Navarre. The water is pretty today but suffers from jellyfish bloom.

“The Orange Julius, for some reason, was always a hotbed of rebelliousness at the mall.”

That and Claire’s for the sheer naughtiness of it all.

we spent 45 minutes capsized in the shallows with our feet touching bottom. Turns out, Hudson River muck cured his athlete's foot"

It’s all fun and games until you step on a sea urchin or a man ‘o war.

The first time that I was ever in ocean water was when I was 16 and my family was traveling the long way around from Michigan to Disneyland (via Texas). We stopped in Galveston one day and took some time to go swimming in Galveston Bay.

Well, I was backing away from shore into deeper water when suddenly I felt a searing pain across the back of both knees. I was later told at the hospital that it was jellyfish stings but all I know is that it was like someone had raked a blowtorch across the back of my legs.

My mother said that I came out of the water so fast, it was almost like the cartoon character running on top of the water ... I was ashore and sitting on the beach, rubbing the backs of my legs with beach sand trying to relieve the pain. So ... yeah, it was all fun-and-games until then ...

Oh, that’s right, that’s what it does for you.
Might help with a fear of heights too. lol
