Well.... back to work tomorrow. :-(

I was lucky enough to leave the dreary, rainy weather
and polluted waters of Northern California and spend 6 glor
ious, sunny days in Southern California. I'm sorry.... ther
e's just no comparison, especially for bodyboarding! San Di
ego reminded me of South Florida, where I grew up. And I re
ally enjoyed the sunny, blue skies. Up here.. it's been rai
ning for weeks and the skies have been grey or white and gl
oomy.

And..... don't get me started on the cold water! It's a
mazing what a difference 10 degrees can make. Going from 50
degree water to 60 degree water was such a treat! It made
me not want to miss a day of surfing while I was there.....
. and... thankfully, I only had to miss one! But that one w
as torture! Sitting in a restaurant in sunny Malibu overloo
king the ocean and having to watch other people out there s
urfing... ::sigh:: But, I was spending time with my best fr
iend... so.. it was worth the sacrifice.

Honestly, I didn't surf very well down south... but I e
njoyed every moment. And that, my friends, is what it's all
about for me. Hope you all had some good waves and good ti
mes lately too!
