City Beach

It was a rainy night but the rain subsided. I was bored and thought I’d go to a beach and skinny dip.

I found the perfect beach. It was late at night – like 10pm or so. Nobody was outside doing anything and this beach was a ghost town. All I wanted to do was go for a quick swim and take off my swim trunks while I was in the water and swim around a bit. I had done this a few times in the summer and found that I was getting a little addicted to it.

I got in the water and was swimming around and then took off my trunks. I was holding them as I was swimming and thought it would be more of a thrill if I swam away from them and then came back to get them, so that’s what I did. I was in pretty shallow water.

I felt really free and it was great. The water was warm and I was enjoying the swim. I went back to where I left my trunks and I could not find them. Keep in mind, this is a pretty large lake but I was in a beach area, and it was only a few minutes since I left them… but they were gone. I must have searched for at least 15-20 minutes, feeling around – nothing. Where in the world did they go? I walked closer to the shore to see if they washed in and nothing. I looked another 10 minutes and then had to give up.

My car was parked fairly close and I had a t-shirt with me, so maybe that was long enough? I had to give it a try. I couldn’t believe they were totally gone. Weird.

As I was walking back to the car, some guy walked past me. I think he figured out what happened and gave a slight chuckle. Pretty funny.
