President's Day 2012

What's better than having a Monday off? Having a Monday off when there's some swell and offshores!

Happy President's Day

Not My Usual Self

I ended up doing a couple of things that I usually don't do (or at least I haven't done in a while) this morning.

I actually surfed for the first time in, geez, I can't even remember. I do remember that the second to last time that I surfed I was in Hawaii, and that was a while ago. Lately, I've been more interested in getting my wanna-be photog on than getting my wanna-be bodyboarder on.

The fun looking waves, in particular, the doubling-up inside section, enticed me to jump in. Although, now that I think of it, it was probably Bran's barrage of "you-should-go-ins" when I first arrived that actually made me surf. Ha. In any case, I had a fun sesh.

After my session I hung out in the lot for around five minutes, which is around five minutes more than I usually hang out in the lot after a sesh.

Outlaws

We found a spot that provided some shelter from the incessant onshore winds this morning. Trouble was we had to break the law to surf there... kind of... ok, ok, not really, but I don't think we were supposed to surf there.

The lone local didn't seem to mind that we visited his spot. Poor guy had a fishing lure stuck to his mouth.

Haaaaa-Y-N!!!

The Trap

Cruised the entire north half of the bay in search of the best surf that it had to offer. I saw some spots that were better than others, only to end up at one of those "others". Dang it, not again! haha
