Florida Rain

It's June in central Florida and the rainy season has officially begun. Good for the farmers, not so good for the beach goers like me. But I've discovered that the beach can still be fun on a cloudy day.
First of all, it's not crowded; all the sun bunnies have stayed in. So you have lots more beach to roam and not run into anybody (except for the surfers who are enjoying the high tide waves-not Hawaii, but a decent wave to catch every now and then). Second, if you enjoy a sauna, then you can enjoy that feeling right on the beach; lots of heat and humidity makes for a good sweat to clean out your pores! Forget about the hair-frizz is the order of the day-just wash it, mousse it, finger comb it, and let it go. And lastly, take a look at that magnificent Gulf of Mexico that God created! Holy cow, it's absolutely breathtakingly beautiful in all its different moods.
So, let the rainy days come! I will still enjoy God's wonderful nature, especially the wet and wild Florida beaches on a rainy day. That reminds me...better pack my "hurricane tub." If you live in Florida, you know exactly what that is...pack it and pray that you won't need it!
