Beautiful session yesterday! Sunny skies with air temps in the mid 50s. Beach walkers were out in force. So were the surfers as an ocean storm was generating 3.5-4’ swells in the 11-12 second range. The line up was as busy as I’ve seen it in months. Lots of folks were sitting on the beach just observing the action.
Once I launched and paddled through the line up, I headed way down the beach to get some space and solitude. Was a great “closing session” as I am headed in for my mitral valve replacement next week. Hopefully, will be back on the water in late April or May. Will come back on the other side as a “free” man, having filed for retirement right after my extended medical leave.
Apparently, some believe trucks can do anything… LEO should have let him and his truck be…
Looks like there are no free rides for winter reprieves… New England is going to get spanked tonight into tomorrow with a classic nor’easter! Bring it!
Yup the Poly boats are tucked away in the barn until it warms up a bit. Waveskis, whitewater boat and paddleboard in the unheated garage. I had a bit of a wreck driving up here with some of our heirlooms, keepsakes and a large paddleboard and totaled my Subaru, it had lots and lots of miles so not a huge loss. We still have about 300 boxes to unpack and figure out where to put everything. I had plans to do some coldwater paddling but not really in the mood to go out alone on the very cold water and ice.
