Day 247- "Because stupid is and stupid does!"

            September 4, 247/365 (1343/1461)- After church I drove down to the beach to get some photos of the surf.  I said something to another local photog about all the people ignoring the warnings and getting in the surf, she replied with the quote above from Forest Gump.  So true today!

In the distance you can see a crowd gathered around another Beach Patrol truck where I found out later they were trying to save a drowning victim, a young person.  The closer truck on the left was coming this way to get more people out of the water.  What part of double red flags do the tourists not understand?

When I got home my biggest concern was wiping the salt spray off my camera and getting a shower myself, but I was thinking about the family of the young person that now will likely be planning a funeral.  Heed the warnings when given, stay out of the water when it looks like this . . .
