schoolboys

@ guys out at daybreak, 38 degrees on the beach ,55 in the water and a close period west windswell grinding down the coast. Too cold for me but fun to watch.

 
 
 

Day of Infamy

The attack on Pearl Harbor happened 68 years ago leading FDR (Pres. Franklin Delano Roosevelt) to declare war on Japan. He proclaimed the date to be one which would "live in infamy" but it seems that America is ready to forget that major attack on US citizens and territory. Todays LA Times had no mention of it on the front page and there is little mention in todays media. "Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it"or something like that, how soon till we forget 9/11/2001?
 
 

silver lining

Came home dry again, I`ve put together a long streak of "no surf" days, which is frustrating as I`ve been working a waterfront project for the last week or so.West winds, high tides, and a looming deadline have kept me onshore, but the coastal drives and morning sunrises are still reward enough. Happy Sunday!

A rare occurance today, Blackies was so weak there wasn`t even one guy out. Saw some sweepers up at Bolsa but it just wasn`t a surf day. Got lot`s of work done.
