nothing but a beautiful sunrise



just missed it

S wind blowing it out

The report was chest to head high with a hard S wind from 3am through out the day.  Got the call to work early yesterday morning and didn't mind because of the forecast.  At 5am there was not a stitch of wind on the river and it was crazy foggy, less than half mile visibility.  I knew if the swell was there it would be like last week.  The entire ride down river, working and the ride back was foggy, not a bit of wind.  Dreaming of a swell that I was going to miss because the fog had slowed everything down.  The Margaret shot was taken from about 300 yards.  As we approached the marina the sun broke out and the wind came up hard.  I decided to go look at the beach with wetsuit on.  It was 12:45 by the time I got to JM's and the SW wind was blowing it out but I got 45mins before I had to leave for other obligations.  I hope somebody got it good,  I just missed it.

unknown getting ready

Tuesday has been good the last two weeks.  I hope the trend continues.  An offshore storm came up the coast and brought us some gems.  Talked to a guy in the lineup, after taking these pics, from Redondo Beach, Ca. He had no idea.  I hope he doesn't go home and tell anyone.  What's up AR?  I hope you are enjoying the sunshine and warm water.  It's overcast 35degs and water temp is hovering at 40 here.

river shots

nothing to do but ride and look for something.  what, i don't know.  but here are two old cypress trees that have long passed away as saltwater came onto the scene.

swell today

there was some swell today after the pasting of the snow yesterday but i could not make it out.  had to work all night and early this morning so i had to let it pass.  water temp is a balmy 43 degrees.

happy new year
