Second VIZ Surf Trip

I took my second group of VIZ folks up to Bolinas for a surf lesson. I had to wake up earlier than I do for work! (I can hear Mookee saying, “Wah!”).

The weather called for rain and crappy weather in general, but we went anyways. The rain cleared and aside from the wind and cold water runoff the waves were not as bad as I expected. With the wind, though, it was warmer in the water than up on land.

Congrats to those few brave souls who came today, and much sympathy for the three who arrived too late to surf; next weekend!

One interesting change for me this time was I took the longboard I normally ride (thanks Ann!) to be fixed. It got a ding somewhere along the way and dropped it off to get fixed. Nick at the shop let me borrow one of the slightly shorter longboards. I was amazed at what a difference it made. If I ever finally get around to getting a board I think that’s what I’ll have to get; something around 9 foot or slightly shorter.

Now I’m beat and thinking about getting a shower!
