Who needs folding chairs at the beach?, Santa Monica

Passmoore, Works Of Alexander & I.V.

Who needs folding chairs at the beach?

Alexander dug a couch-shaped depression into the sand and pitched his umbrella. About 10 minutes of leisurely excavation was the only price he paid for his relaxing beach recliner. Reading Ben Franklin's Autobiography put him to sleep.

An awful lot of beach goers lug folding chairs across the hot sands for nothing. Tacky, unbecoming, heavy and cumbersome… these devices are all inferior solutions to the problem of beach seating. Rather than buy yet another item you’ll rarely use, invest a few moments in excavation. One could carve an entire futon-couch out of the moist sands in a matter of minutes with the help of energetic family members. The day you stop taking a folding chair with you to the beach is the day you’ve wised up.
