Bottled water. Hydration, hydration, hydration. Dehydration does not look
good in a bathing suit.
Sun Hat. This not only helps me to prevent sun stroke, it makes me feel
like
my sisters are with me, since we all bought them together while on Munnatawket
Island. So of course they’re styling, too!
Digital camera. You know, if Nathan decides to skim surf, I want to be able
to get the best pictures. Yeah, yeah, okay… I just want to get good pictures of
Nathan.
SPF30 sunscreen. I’ve spent enough time with my freckles, and who wants to
spend the summer known as ‘Lobster Girl’? I’m good with peachy cream.
A good book. Anthologies are the perfect beach read. Check out this one
called Sisters of Spirit. Four short stories that blend into one large story of
friendship, family and love. A great beach read. Yup, life is good.
