Sand Burs and Sun Burns
Treasure Island is far from the rushed society many of us wake up to every Monday morning. Treasure Island is very relaxing. Though watch out! Many people like to wander off around the beaches of Treasure Island. Watch out if you are bare footed. Off the regularly traveled pathes and beach areas, one can expect to find sand burs stuck to the bottom of one's foot....and they hurt!
Becareful about the sun. Many don't realize it until it is too late. A bad sun burn can ruin any trip. Just use common sense about staying out in it too long. You don't want your back to be a big blister and then pop under your t-shirt and it look like ice tea... My fondest memories of Treasure Island are the outstanding sunsets and scenery. There is a picture of a typical sunset on the left.


Beautiful sunset, I think!
