Best Beach Moment

Summer 2008 at about half til 1 in the morning, Melissa and I went to Long Beach Island in Jersey to walk along the beach and just be. Standing a good distance back from the water but close enough so it would gently sweep against our ankles, we stood completely silent and still for a good seven minutes. The moon was huge and the sky was so clear. All we could hear was the lapping of the waves against our feet and the distant crashing of the surf. Just as we were both about to simultaneously break the silence and remark about how extraordinarily peaceful the night was, BAM! A freakin' wave smacked into us and soaked us both from our waists down.
