Grayton beach behaving badly

My family meets here each and every summer. My parents are now retired here. WE LOVE GRAYTON. However, Sunday at the beach is out of control. The beach is packed with vehicles. There is no space for a chair and umbrella. This sunday we observed an all time low... A local decided to make the "potty place" next to their vehicle and actually held up a towel while others urinated next to the truck. REALLY? :confused:... I am greatly saddend by the disregard for this beautiful beach. We have always loved Grayton as it is laid back and "funky". But - urinating on the beach is just a different kind of funky!!!

So true Hop. The locals and many frequent visitors party like its 1999 out on Grayton beach all day and night. They know how to lay out a feast and enjoy the sunset and a moon rise or a full moon or a dark night full of stars.

They know how to meet new friends and help visitors. They pick up trash. They give people a lift off the beach when needed. They tell them what the double red flag means. Or the purple flag.

Last night was filled with families and friends having their annual vacation reunion on the beach - I don't know who they are but I see reunions out there all the time. Folks from out of town who get it. They are claiming grayton as their special beach. They are leaving no trace.

Grayton Beach is a special place.
I LOVE you, too, Tootsie!!

For me, part of the anticipation of going to Grayton is starting my Grayton box.We do a lot of cooking at the rental so I try to pack enough for our first dinner at the beach. Love getting up and making breakfast for those who when home have little time for breakfast.I have been having Sowal dreams ; does that make meSowal?So in Oct. my whole bunch will once again be together.If you smell bacon or country ham cooking,follow your nose ,there's always extra and new friends are always welcome.

Try not to have that sweet, serene look on your face when you do that, and nobody will know...

I thought peeing on the beach was just one of the warm traditions, like sunbathing. 😀

Will peeing on the beach give one bragging rights?
