The mood.
The anticipation.
The preparation.
Ah, the excitement of going to the beach.
Hasn’t it been a glorious summer?
The sun provides the energy for everything on the earth, but it also has a negative effect with the radiation it produces.
According to the American Academy of Dermatology, more than one million new cases of skin cancer are diagnosed each year and they call skin cancer an unrecognized epidemic. About ten percent of these cancers are melanoma which kills approximately 8,000 U.S. residents each year.
I hope you applied sunscreen properly all year.
Did you have a bathing suit that you enjoyed?
Did you look smashing?
Something like these Victoria Secret bathing suits?
Since I am so fair and burn so easily even with sun block 75, it wouldn’t have mattered if my bathing suit looked like one of these:
Because this is how I look every year…
I know you’re jealous.
That’s okay. We can’t all look like this on the beach.
Obviously Alyssa didn’t get her tanning ability from me.
Love the pictures! I think us summer lovers are all saying goodbye right now.
I love fall too, so its all good!
You're such a nut at times. I love it!
I have learned I can enjoy the summer without ruining my skin. Unfortunately I did have a burn this year (total accident) and it just makes me feel stupid. Shouldn't we know better by now?
Wow…that is SOME beach attire…I don't blame ya…take care of that fair skin.
I don't do bathing suits…I wore a tshirt and skort on the beach.
I have my award and tag up you gave me today. I am not sure I really like how I look in swim suits. I hope you have a great weekend.
You didn't get me worried about sunburns but you did make me want to go to the beach!
I don't even wear swimsuits anymore. I wouldn't wear something like that at home so I definitely wouldn't do it out in public!
I loved your pictures though. Those island shots were wonderful!
What beautiful beach shots. That blue water is amazing. Me wanna go now :-/
Those pictures make me YEARN for a vacation. Ahhh…I love the beach.
That made me chuckle.
Oh yeah—-I USE sunscreen! Haven't had my face in the sun for about 25 years, and my body—-its been about 20 years.
I'm missing summer already! cool pics:)
Oh I slather myself with sunblock every day.
I am very fair too, and moreover would never dream of wearing a white bikini. omg.
Just discovered you and am happily following! Thank you for following me, too!
I adore the beach and saying goodbye to summer is hard for me! Thanks for the great pics!
Love the beach – but I am a sunscreen queen. Visiting from SITS….
LOL! That's how I look just going outside! Hehehe!!
OK, but my swimsuit resembles those old photos a bit much, too… *sigh* ;D
