For a very long time, I believed I hated the seashore. It seems that I simply hated the Jersey Shore. That is blasphemy coming from a loud-and-proud Jersey lady (born and raised, and I’ll battle anybody who talks trash about my house state).
I didn’t hate the Jersey Shore as a result of it’s stuffed with Bennies (a disparaging time period for non-locals who flock to the beautiful seashores in the summertime), of which I’m one. Or due to its gym-tan-laundry repute. Or as a result of sand will get in all places and is so, so exhausting to take away from between your toes.
I hated it as a result of there was by no means any shade, not like the tree-lined Caribbean oasis of Cemetery Seashore in Grand Cayman that I found in my twenties or the Ironwood Forest of Waimānalo Seashore in O‘ahu that I fell in love with in my thirties.
Since most New Jersey seashores have been stripped of any and all shade bushes, you need to deliver your personal cowl. When you’ve lugged your umbrella up and over the dunes and buried that pole into place, even a minor gust of wind can undo your exhausting work. There’s nothing just like the concern of seeing your umbrella flip sideways and uproot itself to change into a lethal projectile, its delicate ribs cracking whereas folks scream in horror.
On a very windy seashore day two years in the past, when everybody else had lengthy since collapsed their canopies, I spied a single, intact umbrella standing proud. That great, rock-solid pillar of shade, my mates, was the beachBUB All-In-One Seashore Umbrella System. I pulled out my cellphone and ordered one on the spot.
