I went to the beach and killed my camera

So yeah. I went to the beach. It was pretty much a spur of the moment thing. I was invited nearly a week before the event, but I had work.

But then I thought to myself: It's summer, and I ain't gone to the beach yet. I live in Kalifornia, and the last 3 times I've been to the beach, it was a lakeside beach. This cannot stand.

So I skived off the last few hours of work and headed for the sand, waves, and bikinis.

Unfortunately, the sand is as much a bane on beach-goers as it is an attraction. It got into my camera, and now that camera is dead.

The last picture this camera ever took.

Thanks for your year of service. Rest in Pieces.
