What's next? Topless?

After we made the move to our new digs in the West Loop of Chicago, things in Lake Forest start to get interesting. Lake Forest just created a kid-free zone on their "public" beach. Actually, it's even a step further and no one under 21 is allowed.

My first thought is, how do you keep folks under 21 from wandering onto a portion of the beach? I wonder if it will be self regulated or has a barrier of some sort has been erected and one of the beach staff is checking id's to verify you are over 21.

Has Lake Forest thought of the potential consequences of such a change? Here are a few:
  • A fake id ring will be surface for those teens desperate to get into the forbidden "over 21 Zone".
  • With no children present, adults may strip down thinking it is clothing optional.
  • Mothers, angered by the ban, might stage a series of protests (a breast feeding sit-in, dig tunnels to the other side and sneak their kids over to run about and shout or chant something like "Hey, Hey Let our kids play!")
  • Horny adults might engage in amorous adventures on the beach
I may have Tim pick up a few issues of the Lake Forester so I can read the police blotter. I am certain this controversy will push housewives and nannies over the edge and an all out war may even erupt. Perhaps I should pack my skimpiest trunks and head up the beach to watch the action first hand.
