Sun (burn) Time -- Prompt 3

Sun, water and sand (really nasty pine needly sand, but sand still), what more could anyone possibly want. Well, a nap on the beach is wonderful, right? NO! Not unless you have the smarts to put sun screen on unexposed areas such as the small of your back. It's a warm lazy day and the eyelids begin to droop. An hour of zzzz's pass then, bam! a brilliant red zebra stripe crossing your back where your shirt should have been. Oh well, how bad could it possibly hurt, right? Well, considering that the weekend sleeping arrangements are sharing the cold hard ground with eight other girls, it could hurt a lot. How about adding about a jillion mini hole pokers (i.e. rocks) and a bear coming through to sample the garbage?
Sound like fun yet? Well it was, so don't you wish you had a lobster syle zebra stripe to remember it by.

Nice Dani! Way to look on the bright side of things! I know how you feel though, sorry about the lobster back. Next time we go camping you should stock up on aloe vera, the stuff works wonders.
Love AFFIF!
