Well you know people do what they want to do no matter what, if they want to sunbathe naked well thats their business, I don't see it as exploitative more exhibitionism, unless you mean the people taking pics of said bathers. What kind of stories do you write?

Well, I don't mean people who do what they want no matter what. I kind of mean some of the parents who take minors to such places.(Unless that is illegal) And yes, taking pictures of said people falls into that category too I guess. Some aspects of it just seem a but exploitative, at least potentially.

But we're getting off topic. I guess this'll have to get its own topic one day.

I wrote a serial, and I completed a rough draft of 4 novels. I usually flock to emotional dramas but I frequent inject other elements prominently into the story such as maybe humor/quirky situations, action, etc.

Cool maybe one day I will read one of your novels.

Maybe, lol. Although my hope for them ever getting published is, low. I don't think they are any good. (I did base 2 of them off of fanfic OLTL stories I mentally developed tho)

Neither for me this summer. Next summer I'll be back at the beach.

About the only time we go to the beach anymore is when our niece visits. Last week they were putting the chairs out at the pool. We're close. We're very close. Memorial Day Weekend is almost here!

If it is clear sunny weather I will likely be at the beach on Memorial Day weekend at least once.

And you know what beach I will be at.

You know, I've finally been able to tear my eyes away to read the signs you're posing next to. "No loitering on walkovers" Was that ordinance necessary because of a weight limitation of the stucture? Is there a ban on binoculars and telescopes within a certain distance?

Probably the beach for me, especially ones on the ocean, but I don't mind lakes, either. The lakes are usually warmed to swim in. The ocean is fine for wading, but it can be cold to swim in.

Pool for me. Again, I don't know where any beaches are around here.

Isn't there a lake nearby?

At a nearby park, perhaps, but I'm not totally sure.

I like pools better but I won't go in a community pool it has to be a private pool. Who knows what people do in the community pools I am quite sure the children and some adults relieve themselves in it.

Indeed, and community pools are probably more lax when it comes to keeping them replenished with chlorine.

The one I go to is pretty clean.

So has anyone been to a pool or beach yet?

I have been down to the beach but not in the water just walking.

I've been in the pool every decent weekend since it opened Memorial Day weekend. It's open during the week now as well.

Have you been to either yet since the summer began?

Not yet.

I was last at the beach in May with Sizzle Miami, part of the Urban Beach Week.

Since Memorial Day.

Going swimming again today.
