I actually prefer Northern California beaches because you're a rough ridin' moron if you get in the water. God invented swimming pools for a reason.
ALTHOUGH, on Mother's day I was out at a beach on Point Reyes (because mrs. michigancat loves beaches), and my daughter says, "HEY, THAT WOMAN DOESN'T HAVE ANY CLOTHES ON", and I'm like, "No, they have on a *turns head*...yep, naked." Jeep in mind I was wearing a hoodie at this point BECAUSE NORCAL BEACHES ARE rough ridin' COLD AS eff. (relatively).
