Well, looking at my map there's a pretty big lake there, right off I-70 between routes 6 and 9, so I suppose there might indeed be a beach in Frisco...

Just take a walk up & down the shore or sit on a blanket in the sun. Besides, many people can get use to cold water & have a great time in it.

And a visual chck at the beaches there indicates that very, very few people get used to the cold water. The surfers all wear wet suits. ************* DAVE HATUNEN (hatunen@cox.net) ************* * Tucson Arizona, out where the cacti grow * * My typos & mispellings are intentional copyright traps *
Tom or Mary - 19 Jan 2006 22:09 GMT If you are talking about Ocean Beach between Lands End and the Zoo, the water there is dangerous. There are a lot of riptides, and undertows. It seems as if a tourist or two drowns each year along the beach. I know people surf there, but my wife grew up along the beach, and the rule was not to go in the water.

It [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > go > in the water. Naw - if he's talking about Ocean Beach between Lands End and the Zoo in San Francisco, he would have said "San Francisco". He meant and said "Frisco" without specifying whether he meant the one in Texas or the one in Colorado. Clint, good ol' boy that he is, is prone to doing that....
Cool Whip - 20 Jan 2006 02:12 GMT He could have meant: Frisco, AL Frisco, ID Frisco, IL Frisco, LA Frisco, MO Frisco, NC Frisco, OK Frisco, PA Frisco, UT Frisco, AK or Frisco, VA
clint - 20 Jan 2006 02:50 GMT I don't think so...their is only ONE Frisco(its in California, hon!)
> He could have meant: > Frisco, AL [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Frisco, AK or > Frisco, VA Lawrence Akutagawa - 20 Jan 2006 06:20 GMT Checked and re-checked my AAA map of California and damned if I can find 'Frisco' listed among the towns/cities. What map of California are you using, clint, such that you insist that there is a Frisco in California? Or are you smoking/ingesting something again?

If you are just looking for beaches they're all fine. If you're looking to actually get in the water, not so fine. But you really need only go as far south along Hwy 1 as Pacifica/Linda Mar, Montara, and Half Moon Bay. Since the air is still pretty cold at all those places, you're not going to get the Baywatch effect, anyway. ************* DAVE HATUNEN (hatunen@cox.net) ************* * Tucson Arizona, out where the cacti grow * * My typos & mispellings are intentional copyright traps *
