Surf: 7.6 ft at 13.8 s from WNW at 292°

Wow, that was some unsafe surf this morning. Waves weren’t big, current wasn’t strong, but there were quite a few people in the lineup who weren’t paying attention or just plain didn’t know how to surf. I had some very close calls with a gal who would look me straight in the eye as I was up and keep paddling, once I got close, she couldn’t pull out of the wave in time and went crashing over. Yikes. More than one person paddled ONTO Chris’s board, including that gal.

For a moment I thought about calling a time out and explaining to a few of these folks about right or way and about how to pull out of a wave without going over the edge. I dunno, it seems a little too bossy. I’ve been in their shoes. That gal had some serious attitude (which I hope I never did when I was a kook.) Those folks were really dangerous though. I hope they figure things out before they hurt somebody.

We paddled more north and away from the fray. I didn’t get much. My cough is back and I was starting to feel plain miserable. Headed in to work.
