Beach Umbrella

Not that doctors don’t know what they’re talking about, but the sun is great for everything.
Plants, animals, the sea, the sky. The world is populated by billions and we’ve all prospered without sunscreen throughout the centuries.
I use a beach umbrella when I’m on vacation but I don’t really believe in sunscreen.
The umbrella functions just the way I need it to. When I want to read, I have shade. If I get too hot, I have shade.
When I want to hug my wife, we have privacy. When playing with the kids, we have shade.
By no means am I suggesting everyone follow what my family does. It works for me.
Lots of people need the sun screen.
I happen to be Black and my wife Korean, so we don’t need what others may. Listen to your doctors.
Protect your kids, but as for me and my house, a beach umbrella is fine. We’re not out and about in the sun on a daily basis like others.
We run our own home business and rarely get vacation, so a few weeks out in the sun is good for us. It’ll help us make some much needed Vitamin D.
