If you’re reading this, truly, I applaud your discipline. I know exactly why you picked up this January swimsuit issue of LAKE, and it wasn’t to read this column. But I’m going to try to make this worth your time.
It sort of relates to the subject of this month’s article: exposure. Not the kind we’re giving the swimsuit models. I mean the exposure we get to modern living at Lake Martin, and the funny contradiction humans have about it.
