long beach: the a**es over elbows edition
i forgot how much i love an early evening nap after a day at the beach.
and anyone who tried to fight the waves today surely earned a good, long one. the waves were fearsome and strong, and most beach-folk stayed tight to the shore. the dozen or so who ventured out kept the lifeguards whistling all afternoon.
it's not unusual for me to get knocked down or sideways by a wave or two, but today i got flipped over, in stuff that was only a couple of feet deep.
FUN.

oh say can you see...
the humanity?
i've been excited to see jones beach for the first time (as an adult) after i read that it's listed on the national register of historic places. but i can't say i wasn't a little afraid that it was going to be a bit too full and too spirited on the 4th of july.
and it was crowded, but not impossible to find spot for an umbrella and a big towel. and the beach soundtrack was right for the occasion--waves, wind, laughter and a little bit of whatever latin/r & b the new york masses are listening to now-- at a level that allowed for some good reading...but mostly, good napping.
the water was c-c-c-cold, but invigorating in brief forays.
love boricua beach style: matching fishnet tops
this was really the only shot i tried to take of the architectural features. the water tower is under construction, people were lined up against the boardwalk railings...and mary and i had quite a but of stuff between us, including a cooler the size of my bathtub... i'll save the real picture-taking for the off-season.

inspiration: sky and summer

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
the sky...
the cameramen i know don't love this cam for "talkies" or documentaries, but it's looking pretty good for music videos...
(between you and me, i would change what the boys are wearing. but it's what the cool kids dig these days...)
