Our town is located on the water. Combined with the fact that we also live in a sub-tropical climate, this might conjure up images of dazzling white beaches, swaying palm trees, and lazy days on the beach. Well, it did for me, anyway, before I arrived here.
In reality, our "beaches" are a bit drearier (see photo).
Lovely brown water (I've never seen anyone in it). And that sky? Similar to CNY -- but overcast from pollution rather than clouds.
When the sun shines here, it is pretty. But unfortunately, we rarely see the sun through the haze. And this is one of the cleanest areas of the country (we are told).
But where else could you see a pony being ridden down the sidewalk for no apparent reason??
These are the little surprises that make our days fun.

and just think about it. the fish and stuff that's sold, DO swim in the lovely brown water
I like how the pony-riding fellow is rockin' the hipster sweatbands. Course, 80's-style wristbands probably aren't the fashion statement there, that they are here... Still, wristband on guy on pony - a worth photograph.
