Surfed a rocky point break called "Church" this morning. Got there before sunrise and we were the first three people out. Surfed it just the three of us for about an hour and it remained uncrowded for a long time. Winds were offshore all morning. It was overcast and the sky and the sea blended together to make one grey image. Hard to distinguish the waves from the sky as they rolled in. Size was small most of the time, but about every ten minutes a good head high or better wave would roll in and peel off beautifully. I grabbed a bunch of really good ones. Point breaks are great.
I especially loved my Becker 6'2" x 20 1/4" x 2 5/8" mini-egg/pod this morning. It glides great and yet it can be turned on a time. The tail if very wide so it's super loose and almost want to slide through tight turns. Gave it the best ride of its life this morning: top to bottom turns, a good floater, and a racy hollow section. The ride must have been almost a 100 yards long.
Catalina is taking a break from school work to watch Backyardigans (love that show; makes me want to dance!) and the baby is sound asleep. Shannon's making mac 'n' cheese for the kids (and for her, I supect). Things are good.
Finally, La Rocca's Pizza makes good slices and sells good, cheap Chianti. Went there yesterday. We'll go back.
