Emergency Jump Rope?

This just struck me funny.  In the Siesta Key beach parking lot, where most people are loading and unloading their blankets, coolers and other beach sundries, this guy was jumping rope -- with his driver's side door open.  It was as if he was driving and randomly decided to stop and jump rope.  The more plausible (and less interesting) explanation is that he was just finishing his workout.  I never had the chance to find out.  Moments after this shot was taken, he drove off.

Maybe he skipped lunch! This pun probably doesn't work in US English. "Skip" = "jump rope" and "miss, fail to attend".

That's funny! A bit obsessive maybe?

Translates perfectly James! We use the words interchangeably.

Could it be some kind of dare or initiation rite? But yes, I would find that interesting myself. Admirable dedication to exercise though.

Thanks for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving your comment. Come visit again. Here's to a great week ahead!
