Day 226 - Day 8 Session 9 - Sunday Morning

While I know I should be at Church on Sunday morning, I will tell you this...I experienced God while in the surf.  Yes, it is amazing as you see what God does when you are sitting on a board waiting for waves.  In fact, we had a nice visitor as we were sitting out there...waiting.  A large dolphin swam by just reminding us of the wonders of this world. 


Today's surf session was a little less glamorous, but still fun filled.  We had the entire group paddling out...friends who love a little water.  Q and his brother Paul (a surfboard shaper who has made several hollow wooden boards...and they are a work of art).  Because the surf was so small,  Q decided to ride his longboard as well.  The only negative of the morning session was the Q found a crack on his board and it started taking in water...not good :(  And his board was a beautiful board...which he knows how to ride.

BEEGEE and son were in the grouping this morning as well...we even did a little board swapping which drove MrsBlue crazy as she was taking pictures...normally the board goes with it's owner.
.  

I even got to try out a fun little 8' 7S SuperFishXL... On the right wave, this would be a great board.  It has a five fin setup (quad or thruster)...which makes it a nice ride.  Wish I had this on Tuesday when the waves were a little less friendly.

However, as usual 3DoorsDown makes every wave he goes for...whether it's on his "What I Ride" or anything you put under his feet...


While surfing is a lot of FUN...the buddies you surf with make it even better.  What a good day surfing with awesome people.



BTW:  After wards we made a breakfast run to the Waffle House...not a bad way to finish a session :) even if there was ham involved!!!
