The Tourists Have Arrived

I don't have to look at the calendar to know what time of year it is. Around here, you can judge things by the number of tourists and who they are. As of last week, I know it is summer. All of the families with children have started showing up in droves. I'm not complaining. The local economy is based on tourist. Many were scared that there wouldn't be any this year and the locals would suffer. It looks like they were wrong. All of the makers of diet pills and swim suits should be happy as well. A trip to the beach usually involved those two things.
