Good, Wholesome Fun

I am totally a city girl.  But I finally learned to appreciate where I live, especially after living in NYC and Boston for most of my summer.  During these last few weeks of August, all I want to do is sit out on the patio.  I don't want to see another form of public transportation for a very long time.

Yesterday, I went to a friend's beach house in Old Saybrook with a bunch of people.  I had never been to this part of Old Saybrook and was surprised by how beautiful the beach was.  It's nice to know Old Saybrook has more to offer than strip malls.
We set up a volleyball net (which was a process) and played some beach volley ball.  The teams were all guys...plus me.  I was pretty much useless as a teammate, seeing as I have a constant fear of sports balls being launched at my face (which was a problem when I had to play sports in high school).  I would constantly miss the easiest of shots and my teammate would look at me with a scowl.

I just sat the rest of the games out and tanned.  That way, everyone was happy.
