Surfboard At Last

My New RideAt long last, I have my own surfboard!

Due to recent events I found myself in need of a surfboard. I’d been saving some money anyways, and thought this would be a good thing to spend it on. So I hit Craig’s List and started searching. I saw a listing for a Stickman board and loved it right away. I was determined to make my first Craig’s List hookup.

But I didn’t call the guy right away because I wasn’t sure I had enough money. Today I figured out I did, though, and called. It had been a week since John (that’s the name of the guy selling the board) had made the first posting (maybe even a little longer) but he still had it. I took a look tonight and paid for it. I hope John doesn’t mind me using the picture he took.

I’m taking it out tomorrow. I can’t wait! I guess now that I have my own board, have lived in California for several years, and surf kinda regularly, I can maybe call myself a surfer? :)
