Surf's Up

[Hop]

it was beautiful...i went out on wed and took a couple off the 2nd sand bar. I was alone and got completely rocked trying to get back out to where they were peaking. I looked up and there was this monster wave like a truck coming at me that i knew it was going to curl before i could get beyond it...when you say to yourself...."OH...S#*%!!" when you see it coming ........ i wasen't with anyone and got bodyslammed into the sand bar...my fins tore my bathing suit..i had to call it...before i killed myself...but yeah...other than near death..it was fun

Hey, thanks so much. These are beautiful.

I miss the beach.

You need to make reservations. Looking at beach photos and posting on a beach board only go so far: there's no substitute for the real thing.

P.S. It's lovely in SoWal at Christmas.

I know. Plus I have Kurt's screen saver running all the time and an old sowal screensaver running on my computer at work. EVERYONE thinks I'm crazy to continue torturing myself every day. They complain that it tortures them to watch the photos loop everyday!

I'm checking flights but they are very $$$$$$$$$$ then. (And no, Mr. johnrudy will not drive 10hrs./day - - 2 there and 2 back.)

Took my boat to Shell Island on saturday and surfed some incredible head to double overhead surf. The wind was blowing hard out of the Northwest and the rock at the jetty blocked alot of the wind. It was a really awesome day!!!!! No surfing photos because we are all too selfish to get out of the water and take shots. If anyone would ever like to come and shot one of these sessions let me know. It is a good time. I did have one shot of the young Motley crew. The older guys are getting everything ready! Imagine that.... This is a pic about 7am heading to Shell Island. It was a little cold!
