I have been reading about the weather and it's amazing! We are normally hot, hot, hot but this year it is so much cooler in the desert than I can remember for a very long time! sam

Really I thought you would be a more gnomely Sheila.

Great memories
I didn't have a beach but went to the local pool every day but alas there were no hunks around. I did get my picture taken diving into the pool and it was put in the paper. Oh the lazy days of summer. sigh!!! I did get a job at the local golf course and met a few hunks there.

Kabu...
Your post here stirs up memories of summers at our cottage on Lake St Clair back in the 50's and 60's when I was just a kid and teenager...what a controversy the bikini stirred up when it started to appear...I never saw any yellow polka dot bikini's, but that song sure got popular....so many good summer songs of the 50's..

You are too modest I am sure there were a lot of guys ready to sweep you off your feet. This was a sweet post I enjoyed it a lot.

Hilarious memories.
I've no doubt at all that any number of those big hunks would have been at the beach to help you look for shells if they had any idea what was going on in your teeny-bopper mind. Love the image of painted toenails, perfect coif and a tiny suit not made for swimming.
Write on!
