And then they went for a walk on the beach...

So we're sitting at the snack shop area in the campground where we're staying at the beach. It's the only place with internet access. And there is this stage here. And they've set up a karoke machine and people are singing. And I'm using that word "singing" quite liberally.

Anywho, I'm currently listening to a lady in her 50s sing Proud Mary. While wearing a bright yellow tank top. And no undergarmets. Did I mention she was dancing? Seriously?

Now it's a lady singing Shook Me All Night Long (isn't that the name?) My kids are just staring. Blank expressions on their faces. Or maybe it's horror. All I know is my ears kinda hurt. And it's not from the sinus infection. Ahem.

I asked them if they wanted to go up there and sing Jesus Loves Me. I think it's a "no".

Oh my word. This teenager boy is getting ready to sing Broken Road with a little teenager girl. And he totally just said "I never believed in love at first sight until just a few minutes ago." That girl's face is soooo red! His buddies are at a table by us and are yelling for him. Oh this is fun.

Love summertime, don't you?

Jennifer, you are so funny. I am so glad you are sharing all that with us, cause I hate it when I see stuff like that and have no one to tell. Have a great time.

That sounds truly funny.

Last month I went grocery shopping on a Saturday morning and they were doing karaoke. In the grocery store. Weird. What makes people with a karaoke mike in hand think they can sing??? Oh my.

Hope your kids recover! :)

I am sure Becca's face is priceless! How fun though! People do things at the beach that they would NEVER do elsewhere... AND they wear things that they would never wear!! oh my! Hate we missed it!
Miss you!

Okay, I just scared my hubby to death! I was reading your post and started yelling for him! We were THERE! YOU have GOT to be kidding me!!! THis was our first year going to the campground. We saw everything you mentioned! The boy, singing to the girl, SO funny! And my hubby has cracked more jokes about the lady singing the ac/dc song! She was in the line dancing class with us ~ she was something! Well, the kids are getting out of the tub! Gotta go! I'll be back! I still can't belive it! If you hung out by the pool I bet my kids played with yours! Oh, my goodess!
