SUMMER IS HERE - Red Salmon & Cucumber salad

Summer is finally here, The daytime temp is in the high 80's and the tide is low most of the time so there isn't much worry about rip currents along hollywood beach, but there is always a chance of lightning in the afternoon as the winds gust from the SE to about 25. This is a good time to stay close to the lifeguard towers for maximum safety. Lots of sunshine.
