NYC Beaches Loaded

This unusually warm weather has left everyone heading for the shore. The beaches were loaded with people. Some were playing hooky from work, while others just enjoyed a day at the beach.

I think people are going a bit too far. Next week, most of them will be sneezing and coughing.

Yuck. I hate beaches full of people. Not that NYC beaches are all that appealing to me anyway...

Haha. Quick weather changes always make one ill - it's so tempting to throw onesself into sunny weather, but in the long run it may do more harm than good.

@ajadedidealist I used to always get a cold whenever the weather changed - now that I work from home it doesn't happen as often. Or maybe it's all the time I spend in the sauna. Or all the vitamins I consume with my healthy diet :)

I always get sick when the weather changes too. The beaches in NY really are crappy. It's almost depressing going to them.

Yeah... I have still never been to an NYC beach. Whenever I get the urge to get to one, I usually plan a Florida trip. Or a California one. Wish I had friends/family in the south of France - then I would probably head there instead.

NYC beaches are exhausting more than anything else. Almost worth leaving the state to go sit on a beach, rather than brave the crowds an annoyance of staying in NY. If I had a Florida grandma, I'd be getting a lot of mileage out of her...

Haha, anyone heard of the "Great Schlep." Back in the days of the 2008 election, Sarah Silverman put out a program encouraging young Jewish (and other) kids to go to Florida to visit their grandparents, and persuade them to vote for Obama...
