Sunday July 14, 2013 #'s 55 and 56. A two-fer

How often do you get to surf

Terramar beach,Carlsbad, California USA

A L O N E ?

 #55 Nobody on the cliff. Nobody on the beach. 

Nobody in the water,

except I

Due to a road closure for a triathlon, I parked a side street and walked into the dark sea.

Well, I do believe another Bill was in the water down at the reef.
It may as well have been a reef 2000 miles away as I couldn't see or hear anything.
I surfed some nice waves in solitude and with out concern for a single thing.
I could hear my board in the water on each wave.
The channels to the fin make a pleasing sound when the board is moving fast and I'm turning.
This new board facilitates my turning.

A great experience this morning !

#56 Sunday part deux

My son and I went out at 3pm in the broad, bright daylight.

Went to the reef out of necessity ( size can matter )

I caught a nice reef wave amongst 25 others in the line up from outside to in.

Kinda like running an obstacle course.

Jason and I caught our wave in together , only to be hopped and snaked by the PRO's at the reef.

Still, a great day together in the water together for "us".

 "Us"
That's what started the whole thing.

A GREAT DAY INDEED !
