So Cynthia and I went to Tangier Island on Saturday with her family. It was pretty fun. The island itself was a little sparse on the entertainment side, which is understandable since it only has like 150 people on it. The tour people said their local economy was based on fishing, but I would be willing to bet that a big percentage of their economy is based on tourism as well. Everywhere you turned, there was an opportunity to spend some money. (“Authentic Tangier recipies, 50 cents! See fish in an aquarium, 25 cents!”)

Anyway, the point of this story is: I went out there without a hat or any sunscreen. Half a day in full sunlight makes Tom a bright red boy. Ouch.
