Inspirational Quote of the Day:
”Laughter is an instant vacation.” - Milton Berle
Morning commuters head out West as a pack of runner turn South, bundled up for warmth. Temps begin at 52 with the familiar gray overlay, burning off by mid-afternoon. Empty spaces fill the void as orange cones are set in line against new posts. A gang of two telling tall tales of surf pasts can be overheard through the silence of town as the walking journey continues to the sandy shore. Calm, vast and open, lapping sounds from a lazy ocean gently brushes crystalized seaweed from tides high swing. Not a soul in sight, a private beach stretches out for all to enjoy for those in the taking. Surf is placed on the back burner as we marvel in the beauty of nature.
CHANNEL: Well, seems as though we are stuck in a flat, glassy pattern of no forward ocean motion. NW swell at a stand still with no sign of white water A frames. Seadrift side in solidarity with Channel proper as the pole claims king of the mountain. Best to cop a squat and enjoy the view from shore.
PATCH: Plenty of water filled in, yet no movement forward as seagulls sit quietly, resting on the waters edge. Reach for crystals deep down in pockets and arrange for cleansing while setting intentions.
PACK IT IN! PACK IT OUT!
RESPECT THE BEACH!
