I Got Too Tan in Miami

With my recent trip to South Beach, I noticed something very interesting: the locals studs and studettes who live in SoBe, DON'T GET TANNED! What's this all about? One would assume that given the ability to lay by the beach everyday, everyone would be a bronze god or goddess. Not the case in Miami!

I understand that many of the "beautiful people" who live on South Beach are in the modeling industry and stay away from the sun. I also realized that when it's 80 and sunny everyday, there isn't this feeling of "better get it now because it won't be around very long." Honestly, I got a little too tanned and felt rather ridiculous...almost George Hamilton-ish! From now on, it's sunblock 8 or 15 for this Greek god!
