What kid wears a shirt at the beach? Note: not talking about SPF shirts. Those didn’t exist in the 1960s.

Be yourself.

You grew up in small town America.

Well, actually, you grew up outside small town America, in a subdivision of 24 homes.

Summers were your favorite Pennsylvania season.

Why?

Because you loved the heat.

And you loved being barefoot and shirtless as a kid.

Free.

Spirited.

You are no different now. Except for barefoot. Your chronic foot pain requires constantly wearing shoes.

Have you ever seen a 60-something dude living a shirtless life?

Windy.

Wet.

So be it.
