Beachcombing

I did something today that I rarely, if ever, do in the month of January. I took a walk on the beach. This is something that I usually enjoy only doing between March and November. But the weather was so beautiful today; I had to make an exception.

Treasure Island’s Public Beach was packed with bodies sunning themselves. For a change, there was actually some good eye candy on the beach today. Usually in January you only see overweight Canadians and Wisconsin heifers lying on the beach.

The Beach Bars and the Tiki Bars at the local beach front Hotel/Motels were also packed. This is the best tourism January that I have seen during the 9 winters that I have been living here. I was so excited that I stopped at one Tiki Bar, had a beer, and talked to a few female tourists.

There were actually people swimming in the Gulf water, which is in the low 60’s. I usually don’t go swimming until mid June, when the shoreline water temperature reaches 80 degrees, and I stay out of the water after it drops below 78 degrees. Six months of pleasurable swims.

Going back to the eye candy that I viewed today! I totally enjoy seeing scantly clad women lying on the beach, especially if they are young and slim. In fact, I rather see these women wearing tiny bits of clothing than seeing them being totally naked. It leaves more to the imagination. And I have a very vivid imagination.

I enjoyed my walk on the beach, I hope that the fair weather holds up and the beach tourists will stay for another day or more.

Tomorrow’s weather forecast is better than today’s, so I’ll walk on the beach again tomorrow!
