THE WEEKENDER :) SURFS UP

A CALIFORNIA VIBE

There's a kind of acknowledgement around Cambria that

if you hire a painter or carpenter who surfs

you can expect them to arrive early (after the

morning ride) and leave by late afternoon

(to catch the afternoon waves).

Teachers, business people, counselors and

others do likewise.  

Unlike most states there is a real surfing legacy

here.  It is part of the lifestyle.

I worked with a fellow from upstate New York who

never surfed until he moved to California. In his

40's he became addicted to it.

When visiting SoCal we used to play around

on boogie boards.  That was a thrill which

only heightened my respect for those

who surf, long boards or short.

So THE WEEKENDER :) shares this

extraordinary video, sent along by my

friend Jim who has years of watching

the surf, surfers and who watched as his

own son became a talented surfer.

For those of you in winter locked regions of the

planet, take a California break.

See you down the trail.
