Wasn't really 3-4 unless the tide was swallowing it up. Kind of disappointed coming out over the hill, under the bridge, near the tracks and seeing it. Better than 1-2 though. A quick session and back to work.

Packed with all the good peaks overloaded. Found an uncrowded, but inconsistent place neat the point and waited patiently. I got a few really fun ones and the size was good, but mushy Turmo. Still, not bad for August.

Bit of a crowd, but some nice lines were rolling in as I walked down the hill to Turmo. I headed out north, towards Old Man's. Loooooong waits between the good sets and the tide was rising fast. Took a few inside, and got a massive ball of seaweed on the leash. Had a great last ride.

Went to Sea World to celebrate Alison's birthday. The Shamu show was pretty cool, but I couldn't stop feeling bad for those guys in those small pools.

Met Jen's new pup, Sasha, today. Cute dog that's part lab. She'll love the water. Surfer dog?

It got pretty windy last night. At one point, a picture got knocked off of the computer desk. Luckily, the glass did not break. It was the picture of my mom with her shoe coming off. Anyway, it's still windy now and there has been some "rain" over the last 24 hours.

Went out at Law while Alison did yoga. It was a bit stormy, but not too bad. Actually some fun rides would jack up.

There was a lot of seaweed on the sand close to the water's edge. Pretty crowded, but I guess school isn't in session for everyone yet. It got a little more corwded when the set up the surf zone. Every once in a while, an outside set would come in. Something is supposed to be coming in though...

Got a rack put on the Fit today, which will help with the problem I had because I used to have to put the board down to get my key to get into the car. I also got a lockbox big enough to put the key and key fob in.

Headed out just north of the estuary. Two fishermen were right at the mouth. A couple of older guys were taking a long time getting ready to boggie board. I banged out a surfer's dozen and went to work.

First trip with the double eagle in the new car. Unfortunately, I noticed some damage on one of the inside fin boxes. Didn't look like it happened in the water though. Luckily, I had some Solarez and was able to patch before I went out. Not a good day though. Lots of closeouts.

Today was the baby shower day. I spent most of the day doing nesting chores and grabbed an evening session to clean off. It was pretty crowded, but I did get a few small ones. Ended on a good sized wave. Got called off one wave by a little kid on a Frye Egg. I pulled out by pushing hard on the rail with my arch and I felt that the rest of the day.

Cruised down in the new Fit during lunch. There was some better size coming through than what I expected. No leash again today. Never really lost the board even. Fun day at the beach with lots of families playing around. I went to Roberto's for lunch because I forgot to bring mine. Reminded me of surfing with Rob, Sam and Frank.

Went to TP with Alison. First beach trip in the Fit. We could have easily added the inner tube with the fish and chair. Surfed with no leash today. I was getting some really fun rides and tried to motion for Alison to take some pictures when the getting was good. The magic window closed by the time she go the hint.

Met up with Adam at Law. Turned out to be super fun hightide surf. I was getting a lot of fun rides and staying on the board the whole time. Probably the longest session in a while. Although there wasn't the size of the recent weekend, it was my most fun session this summer... I think.

I was finally able to take advantage of the cash for clunkers. I was really close to getting as Escape, but Virgil wasn't able to get a manual. On a whim, I went back to the Honda dealer with the Double Eagle. At first, it didn't fit, but once I flipped it deck down the rocker made it work. The Fit is go.

Ran down to surf during lunch. It took about 20 minutes to get there. They had the surf zone up and it was a bit crowded. Some fun waves out there, especially at the end when fun right appeared.

Met Alison and some of her CO friends out after researching cars. Very mushy waves with a hightide still filling in. Got a few fun rides though and it always helps when there are new surfers out. Makes you look better.

Bran-d and Carl had a baby girl today and named her Hope.
