It was cold and rainy at the Atlantic Ocean resort where I
was spending my vacation, but I finally bundled up and went
down to the beach. There I saw a man in a bathing suit,
lying on a large beach blanket. I walked up to him and
asked why he was punishing himself that way.
“I’ve been waiting all year for this vacation so I could get
some color,” he said. “And I’m going to get it - even if
it’s blue.”
