Like a Lake
I’m bummed. Yesterday Jerome and I took our long overdue comp day and went out to go surfing. We haven’t been out in the water in about half year and I was pretty psyched to go.
But when we got up to Bolinas the Pacific was like a lake. In fact I’ve seen lakes with bigger waves. I don’t know about Jerome but I was rather disappointed.
On the advice of Nick at Two Mile Surf Shop we went and checked out Rodeo Beach at Fort Cronkite. It looks like surfing there will be pretty nice… once there’s a swell. We hiked down the beach to see if we could spy San Francisco around the bend but it got a bit rocky and slippery.
We did discover that the coast road up Highway One is finally open again and almost completely rebuilt and repaved in the spots that had been severely damaged in the storms last year. It was like driving a completely new road to the coast! It kind of threw me off, actually.
So over 100 miles of driving and nothing to really show for it. Not exactly the day I was expecting but honestly, it wasn’t so bad. I just wish there was something out there to surf…

*No bitching*. You didn’t have to work. Goodness knows I’ll take a leisurely drive up the coast over the office any day!
