Before the night, July 4th

Here we are at the beach. M. is looking kind of Bay Watch, I’m not.

Meanwhile, the local constabulary was gearing up for the holiday. The neighbors say the chain-link fence is the annual tradition of a makeshift holding area for the drunks and ne’er-do-wells caught with illegal fireworks. I totally want a ride in the DUI commando vehicle (but not as a captured criminal).
