Summer just couldn’t make up its mind this year, could it? It’s like the sun was scared to declare that it was time to shine. Who the heck ever heard of sweaters in the middle of June around here? But there it was. Locals adapted (and grumbled); visitors braved the chill with bathing suits anyway because it was, dang it, supposed to be hot. Well … it’s hot now and summer fun is in full swing.
Full swing means so many things. Our roads are packed, so just relax, don’t sweat the small stuff, be glad you’re here and that to one side of you is the calming sound and to the other is Mother Ocean. Restaurants will, almost certainly, have a long wait list, so grab a drink, people watch and be happy that you’re just about to eat the freshest and tastiest seafood you’ve ever had. Yep, that sand is going to be blistering hot, so wear shoes and carry your littles then run joyfully into that cool ocean water.
Be happy! It’s (finally) summer, you’re here and it’s time to enjoy that beach vibe you’ve waiting for all year.
