Surfside...strange or ingenious?

I've been to a few beaches in my day but last Saturday was a unique experience! We usually go to Galveston, but everyone we talk to raves about Surfside so we decided to try it out. It was so interesting. You pull off the street and drive right onto the beach. Then you drive right up to the water like you're parking at the grocery store and set up beach right next to the car.
Actually, some people just open the doors and sit in their cars. It's weird... and at first I was really freaked out about it, but it was really convenient! We didn't have to walk to get back to the car, and we just kept all the food in the trunk which was right next to our umbrella and chairs. I'm not thrilled about having my picture taken on the beach but I took myself out of the last beach picture and I needed to make it up to Jimmy. I love these people who parked right next to us. They're professional Surfside beach bums! Pop open the bed of the truck and camp out all day! Beautiful!
