Although we grew up just a few miles from the Atlantic, our Midwestern roots make us more comfortable heading to the placid lakes of New England rather than heading to the beach. However there are plenty of times we would show off our beach bodies and dip our toes in the salt water. Below is a collection of photographs collected from beaches around the US.
Leave a comment if you can identify the date and/or location of some of these shots.

Not sure where this one was taken but must be around 1975 ? The sideburns on our fearless leader is certainly the highlight of this shot. |
