pumpin surf

A great swell rolled through earlier this week. When I got in the water it was chest high, when I left it was overhead and a half and building. Had to pull out the cam. I’ll let the videos speak for themselves:

Here is Stuart getting a ride, followed by ?, possibly Garth.

THis was the start of a sick set, which continues here:

spring is in the air

Well here goes. My first blog post. Gonna start this out in chronological order, so this post is about the cool gull nests I found during the overnight bachelor party. This was right before our morning surf. I’m trying out the link to flickr, lets see how this thing flies.

These are nesting kelp gulls, and I thought this was especially fitting considering we have a baby on the way, and it was a bachelors party. the second photo shows the male in the background, hanging out. The last pic captured the feeling the best.   (And helped me distinguish the gull from the cape gull, which is identical except it has a dark eye.)test 2
