And I didn’t have to travel to Florida

to go to the beach. They have an artificial beach at Fort Yargo, filled with sand and fresh water from the lake. The view of the lake was spectacular with trees here and trees there, and probably because this was the only second lake I’ve been to. The atmosphere was comforting stirred with laughter from kids, families, and neighbors around the park.

The water was yellowish but see through for about 2 feet. I wouldn’t know if this comes from the urine of human, animals, or any of those peeing-capable species, but what If I do anyway, I wouldn’t care because I was too busy trying to swim across the lake. It wasn’t the cause that eludes me into swimming across the lake but rather the consequences of doing it. Drowning was in my mind but even more absurd was the thought of being eaten alive by gargantuan crocodiles (the one from Lake Placid movie). I didn’t swim across the lake however because I didn’t have my goggles with me.

Nafeesa said we would do this again this Sunday and so I am so looking forward to this weekend, as I always do. I will bring my mom to the beach this time. It’s self-torturing seeing her unhappy if you know what I mean.
