You know what's really scary, flash a strong light into the Tampa Bay at night. The damned bay is infested with sharks.

I go swimming at the beach, I am stupid and risk my safety quite a bit, but for me, unless I really get some swimming in, the beach experience just sucks...all the hot sun, the rashy sand that clings to everything, etc. But I do make my kids stay in the more shallow and clear water and my husband and I watch them like a hawk. I guess I am just waiting to dive into the path of a shark that has them in their sights.
