Wetness Gone Wild


Okee dokee. Now that’s the way to kick off the summer. The quaint seaside island village I have found to live has developed a unique, in my experience, party parade to start the summer season of fun in the sun. It’s called The Beach Bum parade. And like all great party parades it’s a parade in name only. It’s an all out, full contact water fight. It started more than a few years ago and it’s origins are the stuff of legend. It’s present day incarnation creates them. People just go crazy with this. Most have a blast laughing and running about. Sometimes, as you might expect, the people that don’t know what going on get quite a surprise when the round the corner and drive into an unexpected deluge.
